DB-Access with PB on MySQL and/or SQLite

Hi!

I just coded a little DB-Converter from Access to MySQL on Windows at the office.

In fact that I privately only use Linux and do not have any Windows at home, I wanted to do some DB-Exercise on Linux.

I found an article in the forum where it was talked about MyODBC, and that should work on Linux.

I downloaded MyODBC 3.51 from mysql.com and configured the odbc.ini as it was described on the site. But anfortunately I always get the error "InitDatabase() is not a function, Array or Linked List".

What can be the mistake I've done? I must say, that I only took the AccessDatabase.pb and changed the ODBC-Connection-Settings.

Is there any way to connect MySQL or SQLite without ODBC, maybe with a special Library? I know that there is a libmysql.dll and sqlite.dll on Windows and that there are libraries available, but anything like that for Linux?

Greetings, ATF

Hi
I've installed the recent 3.91 beta and odcb linux drivers. the opendatabase etc is there
but I get an error on Mandrake. Could you try and pass me your results with MySQL?
thanks and regards
