ok, local database setup, now the remote one

is the luaSQL/Vista bug/crash still present and if so is it worth useing luaSQL and hope for a fix soon?

(i know very little about the above so some information would be nice)

if luaSQL is a non starter then its a ocx or php

if its php would i need to secure the scripts, or pass login details as arguments and put scripts in a public folder (would it be safe that way?)

ocx, well if i can find a MySQL class for VB then i can make my own, but are the any recomendations on a control.

i think i already know what i am going to use, i just want some 3rd party views.

Forget about luasql, it dosn't work on Vista. You best option is http://www.indigorose.com/forums/showthread.php?t=24159&highlight=odbc Just download the free MySQL ODBC driver and you are all set.
