connect to remote mysql with out using ODBC

[viperlogic]

i am using vc++6 MFC and dialogs i want to connect to my remote mysql database and put the results in a CListView, any example i find uses ODBC, where a window box is poped up and a you have to select a ODBC. can i not just connect directly to the mysql server? Or if a OBDC has to be used can i hard code one in and how? thanks

1. go to mysql.com to download c library, which contains c functions for accessing mysql database and is free. 2. go to your host to add your PC's IP address to mysql database, otherwise you can not access your mysql database.

ah right, im am using a mysql wrapper already (MySQLWrapp), was just wondering how to get the data into a CListView. like all the columns and rows. all the examples show how with ODBC

if u can read records from mysql db, why can't u add them to CListView? is ur question about mysql or CListView?
