Okay, I'm in tech support hell right now.

This may be a long shot, but is anyone running a windows x64 system
with 9.2 along with SAS/Access for MySQL? And, do you happen to have
installed MySQL v5.0?

Long story short, it's not working and tech support doesn't seem to
have the solutions. I feel like it has something to do with this
libmysql.dll, and maybe the one I have just isn't compatible with this
version of SAS.

Cheers!

It should work with MySQL 5.0. What's kind of error information you
get?

Please check you configuration in this usage note:

The standard error:

ERROR: The SAS/ACCESS Interface to MYSQL cannot be loaded.
The libmysql code appendage could not be loaded.

I realize that it should work with 5.0, and I had 9.1.3 working with
5.0 previously. Which is why this is so confounding. Why is it not
working with 9.2?

Can I assume you have this installed and running? What exact version
of MySQL are you running? And, if I may, how many KB is your
libmysql.dll file?

yeah, this looks like a problem with libmysql.dll. Since it worked with
9.2, I assume it is in your Path?

Oh yea. I'll just paste here the summary of what I've sent to tech
support.
