Saw the light

[Daniel Ramirez]

Some reflection:
My first option to work with mySQL was odbc. Today I don't remember why, but I ended working with odbc 2.5 due to some supposed compatibility issues. After that I switched to OLEDB (which supposed to represent better performance) and I fighted a lot with it up to this morning. A lot of water has passed under the bridge and today I switched back to myODBC 3.5, my very first option.

Result?...Success!!!

Now all runs smoothly and clear.

Fortunately, problems and work make the master.

Thanks a lot, Mike. Keep writing!
