Yeah I've tried that one too. Didn't do anything.

What's this? Is it a string?
I'm not a registry hacker ...

This bit I follow ...

But it still doesn't work. I get an error:

The setup routines for the MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver ODBC driver could not
be loaded due to system error code 126.

 ... and then another error:

Could not load the setup or translator library.

I tested this a couple of years ago, and had it working ... 3.51.06 or
so ... but I can't use this version because it can't authenticate
against newer MySQL servers.
