    Your sql explorer looks great! And i'm really looking foward to using it, but I can't connect to my db... I have never used a connection string before... I used phpmyadmin, and mysql query browser/ mysql administrator. So could someone please tell me what I need to do to connect? I am running Ms win xp, and my db is off localhost, I have it set to use the mmmysql driver, I think that's the right one...

      Oh and i'm getting the error " illegal connection port value '3306>]' "
      which I don't understand, as administrator and query browser connect through 3306?

      Ok I have found my problem on your website, I don't have a mysql driver, It says mysql.jar file, but I don't have a mysql.jar So could someone tell me where I can download this file?

        You can download the JDBC Driver for MySQL from the mysql website: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.0.html

        You will find the jar file in the root of the archive.

      Well I figured it out lol,
      I found a post where someone was having my problem with an oracle db .jar.
      So I went to the site and finally got it working.

      But still thank you for the help!
