Hi there, please can someone help me out, i`m really having a tough time tring to connect to my remote mysql DB, this is the connection string i`m using :

Conn3 = "DRIVER={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};SERVER=196.68.218.144;PORT=3306;DATABASE=PowerB; USER=admint;PASSWORD=monkfatwhy;OPTION=3;"
Conn3.Open

when i log into the online DB via phpMyAdmin it says mysql running on localhost as admint@localhost , does this mean that this is my server name?? please help thanks Anthony - (ive just made up dummy password and usrname and ip)
