Part 2: The 32-Bit/64-Bit Drivers : The MySQL Wire Protocol Driver : Connection Options Descriptions
  
Connection Options Descriptions
The following connection option descriptions are listed alphabetically by the GUI name that appears on the driver Setup dialog box. The connection string attribute name, along with its short name, is listed immediately underneath the GUI name.
In most cases, the GUI name and the attribute name are the same; however, some exceptions exist. If you need to look up an option by its connection string attribute name, please refer to the alphabetical table of connection string attribute names.
Also, a few connection string attributes, for example, Password, do not have equivalent options that appear on the GUI. They are in the list of descriptions alphabetically by their attribute names.
The following table lists the connection string attributes supported by the MySQL Wire Protocol driver.
