This is a silent installer and uninstaller for MySQL Connector/ODBC (once known as MyODBC).

MySQL Connector/ODBC allows Windows programs, for example OpenOffice, to connect to a remote MySQL database, for example on an office server.

MySQL Connector/ODBC can be dowloaded from http://www.mysql.com/products/connector/odbc/.

Setting up an ODBC System DSN

Version 5.1

dummy.reg is HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.ini\dummy exported via regedit on a machine with the appropriate DSN defined. 

<package id="mysql_dummy" name="My Dummy ODBC Connection" revision="2" reboot="false" priority="4" >
  <depends package-id="myodbc" />
  <depends package-id="reg" />  <!-- Windows 2000 doesn't come with reg.exe, hence this dependency -->
  <check type="registry" condition="exists" path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\dummy" />
  <install cmd="regedit /s  %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\dummy.reg " />
  <install cmd='reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /t REG_SZ /d "MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver" /f ' />
  <upgrade cmd="regedit /s  %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\dummy.reg " />
  <upgrade cmd='reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /t REG_SZ /d "MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver" /f ' />
  <remove cmd="reg.exe del  HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\dummy /f" />
  <remove cmd='reg.exe del "HKLM\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC DATA SOURCES" /v dummy /f ' />
</package>


Reg.exe for Windows 2000

reg.exe isn't bundled with Windows 2000 by default, it is only available as a download or as part of the Windows 2000 Resource Kit. This copies reg.exe into place so it can be used in the above: 

<package id="reg" name="Reg.exe" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="99" >
  <check type="file" condition="exists" path="%WINDIR%\system32\reg.exe" />
  <install cmd='xcopy /Q /R /Y "%SOFTWARE%\reg.exe" "%WINDIR%\system32\" ' />
</package>

Mysql Tools 5.0

<package id="mysql_gui_tools" name="MyODBC GUI Tools" revision="1" reboot="false" priority="4" >
  <check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="MySQL Tools for 5.0" />
  <install cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r17-win32.msi " />
  <upgrade cmd="msiexec /qn /i %SOFTWARE%\myodbc\mysql-gui-tools-5.0-r17-win32.msi " />
  <remove cmd="msiexec /qn /x{FCB10DE3-E190-4A7E-B06A-FAC61567ABFC}" />
