Question:

I receive the following error message trying to connect to MySQL database on my local box:

[MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]Could not find driver {MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver} in system information.

Answer:

Some ODBC drivers will give you this error. To fix this error you need to install MySQL ODBC driver 3.51.06. Here are step-by-step guide:

1. Remove previous MySQL ODBC drivers installation via Control panel->Add remove programs. Make sure that there are no myodbc*.* files in c:\windows\sustem32 directory (sometimes they are not deleted by uninstall program.

2. Download and install MySQL ODBC drivers 3.51.06: http://www.asprunner.com/files/MyODBC-3.51.06.exe

After that you will be able to connect to MySQL database.
