Steve,

It's coming along quite well. I can log in and do simple queries, and 
clean up after them (how MySQL does that is horrifying), and now I'm 
attacking prepared statements - so far so good. I'd say in another 3-4 
days I'll be back to where I was with the library dependent version.

I agree with you 100% that getting the library out of the way is a top 
priority. What's more, now I'm getting my head round the protocol I'm 
thinking the binding for prepared statements can be simplified from what 
I had before.

Kagamin,

I'll get that header file. I already have a good chunk of the ODBC stuff 
done from a Windows header file a couple of years ago, so I should be 
able to get a quick start.
