This is a very broad question - there are lots of existing methods for interacting with a database:
- LabSQL
- Database Connectivity Toolkit
- MySQL has a TCP/IP interface
- MySQL has a command-line interface
I believe as well that Mike Porter has written a MySQL API as well - I found a link to it here (might be out of date though?): http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Extracting-one-column-from-Database/m-p/547276#M257531
Why do you want to write your own? Which method do you want to use?
