Connection strings are everywhere on the internet.
If you set up a DSN, you can connect that way, or you can use the standard connection strings.
Here's a good site for connection strings: http://connectionstrings.com/
Driver={MySQL ODBC 3.51 Driver};Server=data.domain.com;Port=3306;Database=myDataBase;User=myUsername;Password=myPassword;Opt ion=3;
For DSN's (set this up using Win's ODBC Connection Manager in Admin Tools > ODBC...), use
<%
Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Conn.Open "DSN=<yourDSNname>"
%>
