Data Access Components for MySQL (MyDAC) is a library of components that provides direct access to MySQL database servers from Delphi, Delphi for .NET, C++Builder and Kylix. MyDAC can connect directly to MySQL server or work through the MySQL client library. The MyDAC library is designed to help programmers develop faster and cleaner MySQL database applications.

　　MyDAC is a complete replacement for standard MySQL connectivity solutions and presents an efficient alternative to the Borland Database Engine for access to MySQL.

• TMyTable - allows to retrieve and update data single table without writing SQL statement
• TMyStoredProc - executes stored procedures and functions
• TMyCommand - executes SQL statements and stored procedures, which do not return rowsets
• TMyScript - executes sequence of SQL statements
• TMyUpdateSQL - lets you tune update operations for a DataSet component
• TMyDataSource - provides an interface between a MyDAC dataset components and data-aware controls on a form
• TMySQLMonitor - allows to monitor dynamic SQL executing in MyDAC based applications
