What compiler are you using to build your C++ program in?

I'm not sure I'll be able to help much in that part. But I have done alot of work building web programs in perl that access MySQL databases.

Here is the windows mysql connector libraries:
dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/odbc/3.51.html

This is the documentation for using them:
dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/myodbc-connector.html

It does contain code examples.

This looks more geared for what you want:
tangentsoft.net/mysql++/

Hope this helps.

Well, if even the examples aren't compiling then either get another compiler or develope your app in some web language like perl, php, or ruby on the redhat box
