I'm using MySQL with GNADE via ODBC, compiled with GNAT 5.02 (non-cygwin), and have had no dll problems. > Out of interest, why does cygwin not include all these products?

I'm the nominal GNADE maintainer for Windows. I guess that makes it my job to create that guide; I hadn't quite thought of it that way. Although Michael Erdmann is also doing Windows now. Let's try this; send me (via private email) the steps you've taken so far, and I'll see if I can reproduce your problems and provide solutions. Then that will form the starting point for the guide you are talking about. I'm on Windows 2000, but that really shouldn't matter. You could also ask on the gnade mailing list (http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=23045) > I have already made attempts to read the GNADE documentation but it > is still not clear to me, albeit is not for the GNADE documentation > to document how to install mysql etc on cygwin. Well, I think it should help, or refer you to other good docs. -- -- Stephe
