Hi!
Sorry, but for the moment I don't think you can save options for
MySQLManager. We hope that the new MySQL client that will be released
very shortly (read hours, check http://www.mysql.com/downloads.html) will
replease MySQLManager as no one is doing any development on
MySQLManager.

MySQLManager doesn't use ODBC. Have you installed MyODBC ?
