FMPro9 Mac ODBC not working...

I'm trying to demo Fmpro 9's ability to connection to MySql. I set up an
Actual Open driver and set a connection which works in the test, but trying
to integrate it with local Fmpro, and I cannot get a connection.

I've tried to manage dbs and use sharing, etc. but nothing seems to work.
When trying to connect, it says connection fails or doesn't exist on the
server. It doesn't make a lot of sense.

This should work as seamlessly as CocoMysql , but it seems impenetrable.

Any clues would help.
Thanks
Jeff

It also seems to be looking for the database table with the fp7 extension
on it, which makes no sense for MySql.

I got some presales help and was able to configure it. Problem was that you
need to set up the connection in the Relations panel, not in External
Database Management Link.
