I could not simply cut and paste working code, but this should get you started. There is no programming difference in using a remote sql server. import MySQLdb dbparms = { 'host':'dbserver.example.com', # name of sql server # (localhost for your local computer) 'user':'dbusername', # your identifier 'passwd':'dbpassword', # your password 'db':'dbname_to_use', # initial database } conn = MySQLdb.connect( **dbparms) > > I'd appreciate any help. > Thanks!! > > Patricia > > _______________________________________________ > Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor -- Lloyd Kvam Venix Corp _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
