    VB and MySQL Database

    Can I use VB6 to interact with a MySQL Database stored online? I need my program to check the users name and password which is used to access my site and is stored in my database online.

    Thanks in advance

    yeah it can be done, use ODBC drivers to connect.
    personally i have an access database with "linked" tables to an online mysql database.

    and my vb app simply interfaces with the access database (stored locally) as if it was just any other database, and access updates the online one whenever i update IT.
