what driver to choose for mySQL

  • Hi all,

    I am new to SQL Server and a bit shaky about the operation I would like to do.

    What I want to do is to query, using SQL Server 2012, a database that is created in mySQL. Apparently a linked server is the solution.

    I have read a few articles and I believe that I have to start with installing an ODBC driver (SQL Server <--> mySQL).

    I searched on the mysql.com site for such an ODBC driver.

    This search results in 938 hits.

    The question now is: which 1 to take?

    Maybe I am looking at the wrong place, if so, what are my options?

    Maybe some additional information:

    I have a 64 bits machine

    I Use SQL Server 2012

    I have Windows 7 Home premium

    If more info is needed please let me know

    Thanks in advance

    Hein
