Re: [Squirrel-sql-users] Connecting to mySQL Database

[Colin B. <col...@te...>]

Hi Norman,

Take a look in the Help file for SQuirreL (in the Help menu) in the section "How to Connect to a Database". It will show you how to point a driver definition to the JDBC driver file on your file system. You can access it online at http://squirrel-sql.sourceforge.net/user-manual/quick_start.html#howtoconnect
