Hi,
I'm new to DW and MySQL and am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> I'm trying to set up a DW MySQL conection but am having problems when testing my connection. I have added the db and can see it (in the Database window) but when I go to expand the table view I can not see the tables and get an error message something like "check to make sure the db is running and "make sure there is a ODBC DSN connection on the testing server".

My host is through yahoo so do I need to set up a ODBC DSN connection on my pc to allow DW to connect?

Also what should I set the value to in the "Host" column for my db user ID? Should it be "localhost" or the URL of my site where the db is running?

Thanks in advance!
