Added explanation of 5.2
MySQL Connector/ODBC can be dowloaded from http://www.mysql.com/products/connector/odbc/.
== MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.2 ==
"Connector/ODBC 5.2, currently in beta status, upgrades the ANSI driver of Connector/ODBC 3.51 to the 5.x code base. It also includes new features, such as enabling server-side prepared statements by default. At installation time, you can choose the Unicode driver for the broadest compatibility with data sources using various character sets, or the ANSI driver for optimal performance with a more limited range of character sets. It works with MySQL versions 4.1.1 and higher."
"With MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.2 (currently in beta status) now offering both ANSI and Unicode drivers, you should expect to upgrade [from version 3.51] relatively soon after 5.2 becomes generally available." - http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/connector-odbc-versions.html
== MySQL Connector/ODBC 5.1 ==
For ODBC connections to MySQL version 5.1?
