Subject: [AccessD] MySQL Newbie

Hi All!

I have been keeping an eye on MySQL for sometime now. I have been
hesitant to use it because I have been accustomed to using SQL Server
and like using stored procedures and triggers.
Now that MySQL 5 is out, I very interested in checking it out.

I have some newbie questions.

1) Does Access play nicely with MySQL?

2) Is MySQL really free? Are there fees somewhere for using the
software?

3) Does MySQL come with management tools, like Enterprise Manager for
SQL Server?

4) I see there is a Standard version and a MAX version on MySQL.com.
What is the difference?

Thanks!
JR
