That's usually ODBC and JDBC.

Here are some notes and some pointers:

Or load MySQL directly onto OpenVMS, and use it locally.

If the source code is functional on an OpenVMS Alpha box, then recompile and relink the source code on your OpenVMS I64 box, check any diagnostics issued, and see if the results work. Port it, in other words.

Likuair, if you're using PHP, then the remote MySQL database is accessible natively from any server.

Hi likuair

We use the C API ported by Jean-FranÃ§ois PiÃ©ronne available at

http://www.pi-net.dyndns.org/anonymous/kits/

for both Alpha and Integrity.
