Subject:Visual Basic 6 + MySQL

Hello!

I'm thinking to develop a database interface for our company and I thought "great" when I discovered that Visual Basic 6 was able to interact with MySQL. That's because VB6 is very easy and PHP (even being fast, but its hard for me) gets slower because the source code for HTML pages needs to go from the server to the client and big pages must carry the data and the tags, images, css, formating, etc...

However I'm not going to start a project without knowing that VB6+ODBC Driver is able to do all the needed operations to connect/read/write/insert/update a database.

Additionaly I would like to know if I can manage users from VB and to backup the DB.

If anyone can tell me something about it I appreciate. I would also "like" (Not Mandatory) to use a secure connection (SSL) but I don't know if this is possible using VB6/ODBC Driver.

Note: The MySQL Database will be served from our company server. (Any links to tutorials/tips/recommendations/forums about this subject are also welcome)

Thanks

- Nuno
