Question:

How can Delphi access a mySQL database?

Answer:

There is an ODBC driver for MySQL (MyODBC), that enables you to make ODBC connection to an mySQL database.

This will work in pretty much all Delphi versions since they all support ODBC.

At the time of writing, the URL to download the MyODBC driver is

I am a amateur programmer.
I can not answer your question.
I do have a question.
I need help. My problem is that I am triing to connect Delphi BDE to a Microsoft Access database on my local PC. I do not use username or password when I work in that database. Newertheless, when I try to connect my Delphi to the database the computer asks for both username and password. I use Delphi 6 program which I got 5 years ago when I teached programming in a college.

Can you help me?

Regards,

Tomas Isleifsson
