Hi,
I just installed MySQL 5.0.0a-alpha and enjoyed the exciting new
features like stored procedures.
Are there dbExpress drivers that support the invocation of stored
procedures? I have tried the one that ships with Delphi 7 but it did not work.
Is ODBC a better way? I have heard from an OpenSource dbExpress driver
that is better than the one from Borland, but I could not find it.
Thanks,
Joe
 

If you want to stay on the leading edge then ODBC is the way to go. That
way as Mysql Releases updates, they will have support for the database
server in the form of odbc drivers as well. Borland has been almost a full
version behind all the time. There is better support from crlab.com, but
they do not have 5 support yet but they do have 4.1.
 

Does the MyODBC Driver support the invocation of stored procedures?
What DB engine is best für ODBC? The ADO/ODBC provider?

You really should look at 3rd party drivers. Borlands are very buggy
and they are extremely slow in releasing updates.
