David, thanks soooo much.

You got my application running again with the skip innodb and bdb in
my.ini file. I will look into installing a later versions of mysql in
the future.

When you say save data files, that of course is the data files I
created. Do I need to save everything under the mysql\data directory
such as ibdata1, ib_logfile0, ib_arch_log_0000000000.

I assume I can reuse the mysql-connector-java file without downloading
it again. Is that correct?

Also, will I need to ...
- uninstall mysql before I download it, or
- just download and unzip it and it will automatically replace the
existing one?

Issue Resolved and thanks again.

Bob

No, if it starts OK in console mode with skip-innodb,
it _should_ run fine in service mode too (with skip-innodb).

Use the MySQL feature comparison page:
http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/features.html

You might want to prod the MySQL folks and tell them to
update the web page to include MySQL series 5.

Also, you can read the MySQL change history:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/news.html

It only covers the currently recommended version.
For older versions, you'll have to dig out an
older version of the manual which it's included in:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/news.html

No, it's equally suited for small applications.
