Possible to use mySQL, an open source program with Labview without the use of toolkit, just like we can do with MySQL with Command line.

Hi i am trying to see if I can use sys exe .vi to execute Mysql commands. Is it possible to use without toolkit?

Hi,

Sure, this is possible. But there is a free toolkit for SQL communications: http://www.jeffreytravis.com/lost/labsql.html

Hi. I know there's a free toolkit that use ADO. But the problem is that my company not wish to splurge on the purchase of MS database server or  alikes, but prefer to run MySQL. So can I do the labview with the MYSQL only?

The same answer as earlier - yes. You don't purchase ADO. It's already installed on most pc's and you can download it from Microsoft. I don't have the link handy but you can search Microsoft for iether ADO or the Microsoft Data Access Component (MDAC) and get the latest version.
