Hi
I have abyss web server, preconfigured php and MySQLinstaller 1.4 running on my laptop.
I have a website that has MySQL databases on it.
My website says I should connect to MySQL by using localhost.
My MySQL username is sideshoe@localhost and I have the correct password to access the databases.
When I try to connect I cannot get a remote connection to my website databases using MySQL for Excel. I keep getting unable to connect errors.
Is there a way I can make a remote connection to my website MySQL by altering my "hostname" in MySQL for Excel?
Taking my first steps so apologies if this is a stupid request.
