Hi Vladimir, In fact, at the beginning, I tried to install RODBC and the MySQL driver but I did not manage (I think due to the driver and the configuration in the control panel). Then I tried to install RMySQL and DBI on my PC (not the one with the "real" database), and it worked without any problem. So I keep working with RMySQL.
You think there are advantages to try again installing RODBC ? Anyway, for the moment, I think I will continue with RMySQL, just because it works. But for me it is a good reason (especially because I'm not a specialist of PCs and I don't have the time to become one. I'm only an end-user). Have a nice day, Ptit Bleu.
