Thanks. The developer cheerily informs me that Access is 'deprecated' and will 
be phased out. So, SQL it is. 

I'm not sure what you mean by 'passthrough'. Do you mean
MYSQL
  |
ODBC
  |
Win app
?

If so, where do I go to learn how to configure MySQL and ODBC to dance together 
nicely, and talk to the app?

Thanks!
