MySql works. But why not a Database with Spatial functions ?

You can work with all Databases about ODBC and OLE.

And directly with SqlServer, IBM, Oracle, Postgres/PostGis with

the Enterprise Version.

Take a look in the Manifold help under Spatial DBMS Facilities

Hello

MySQL as a beta version with GEOMETRY datatype. See in the link:

http://forums.mysql.com/read.php?23,180392,180392

or put in a search engine the following string: "mysql 5.1 gis download"

However, and like Volker said MySQL an Manifold it"can work with all Databases about ODBC and OLE". To finish, the Manifold dont support until now the direct like with the MySQL. But it works and there is manifolders working withe Manifold/MySQL.
