MySQL Visual Basic problem
in MySQL Help
Posted
I have a MySQL database with Visual Basic user interface implemented and working on a computer, however encounter problems when I want to move the project to another computer. I have moved both the visual basic project and MySQL database to identical directories on the hard drive, and edited the code to connect to a MySQL server on the second machine. Using the MySQL administrator, the required database is easily visible, however VB frequently comes up with the error "Data source name not found and no default driver specified" when the code is run. I have triple checked that the MySQL ODBC 3.51 driver is installed on the machine.
connectString = "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};" _
& "SERVER=localhost;" _
& "DATABASE=sp-800;" _
& "UID=root;" _
& "PWD=123456;" _
& "OPTION=" & 1 + 2 + 8 + 32 + 2048 + 16384
Any ideas? What am I not doing right?
