To set up mysql,

dowload WINMysqladmin and mysql odbc drivers for windows and set these up

Set up your system dsn in the windows control panel, ODBC system dsn, add pick mysql and then give it a name

In dreamweaver open your web page, open connections, select a custom connection string and use something like the following

"Driver=MYSQL; Server=localhost; Database=YOURDB_NAME; UID=YOUR_USERNAME; PWD=YOUR_PASSWORD;"

username and password are the ones you used with winmysqladmin.

This worked fine for me, a bit tricky the first time but once you get the hang of it it works really well

the downloads should be available from the mysql web site
Hope it works
