I am new to Dreamweaver, always used FrontPage before. I also use MySQL and PHP, but coded everything by hand.
I heard that MX supports MySQL, does this mean that it has a GUI interface to the database to help creating screens easier?
I am looking forward to installing MX.

Dreamweaver MX supports the PHP/MySQL server model. To install php download it from www.php.net/downloads.php.
This will install php with built-in MySQL support.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Good luck.

I am already using a web hosting service that supports php/mysql. I already have that and have been using php/mysql for a while.

My question was "I heard that MX supports MySQL, does this mean that it has a GUI interface to the database to help creating screens easier?"

For example, when I want to make a query now, it takes a lot of php code to do this. Does MX have a like a drag and drop function that makes this sort of thing easier?

-Thanks!

Does MX support ASP.NET model with MySql? It seems that I am having trouble with this, can I use ODBC or strictly OLEDB for .NET model?

As far as I know, there is no gui interface other than a query builder for simple sql statements.

Dreamweaver MX supports ODBC and OLE DB. ODBC is better supported apparently but less efficient.

Hope this helps.
