Query Result: #08S01Bad handshake
The only time I have seen this (and it is a while since we used any ODBC in this office) is when the client cannot connect to the server. Have you checked that the client box has firewall settings that will permit a connection?

    I have. Actually after I declared the new connection, I put a "sleep 60;" statement there. I went to the MySQL DB server and opened the connections. It showed the server name that the connection was coming from and the port number. So I am assuming all is well.
