There's either a language barrier going on here or you have a serious
lack of knowledge on how MySQL works.
I think you are reading this wrong

Quote:
1) MySQL server must be running on your system or on a remote system
with remote access enabled (most ISPs don't do that and companies won't
do it unless you're connected through a VPN)
I think that when they said "MySQL base" they mant "MySQL database".
No where did they suggest that they didn't have the MySQL server
running.

Quote:
2) ODBC middleware (see the MySQL site for where to download it) must be
installed

3) Excel must be setup to allow for import from remote sources. *You can
do an import directly in Excel, but I don't know if you can from VBA.
Yes, VBA can access ODBC data sources
