See http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=9932 I can't comment on whether this is an intentional attempt by Microsoft to break things. I certainly agree with your general sentiments, but unfortunately this time I think the blame lies with MySQL. This bug is over 18 months old. Whether it was originally Microsoft's fault or not, I think 18 months is sufficient time for MySQL developers to find a way around it. My assumption is that MS Access users are a very small percentage of the MySQL user base, and an even smaller percentage of the *paying* user base. Seen in this light, it's to be expected that this problem gets little / no attention. For the best solution, search on that bug page for 'msaccess.exe.local'. This appears to be the cleanest 'solution' while we're waiting for something better. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [email protected] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au -- MySQL ODBC Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/myodbc To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[email protected]
