Well, after clicking 'Add', I get a choice of: [mdb, dbf, xls, dbf, odbc for
oracle, txt, csv, visual foxpro, MySQL, sql server]
Selecting MySQL brings up the MyODBC driver configuration, here you can
specify the host, user, pass, database, and a slew of checkboxes ..
Maybe you forgot to thrice reboot and make coffee? :-)
