Hi while I have not YET connected BCB to MySQL I have installed it using 
something called a WinAMP. This WinAMP installs  apache mysql and php - 
I use the FoxServ Winamp for this.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/foxserv/

Anywho, MySQL is supposed to install as a service that you can start and 
stop. You should see a traffic light in the icon tray that you can use 
to do basic start/stop of the mysql interface.

If you installed it via FoxServ, you will get an option to create an 
account, which can then be used to login to the system. Also  with 
Foxserv you can use the localhost apache connection to administrate your 
MySQL tables.

I am currently doing a short course on web engineering 
(apache/mysql/php/javascript/dom/sql/xml) so this is how I get the 
experience.

NOW To run it you must launch a cmd prompt at the bin path for the mysql 
installation...
then login something like this...
mysql -u root mysql
(login using the root username without a password from the mysql database)
then you get a prompt like this..

mysql>

NOTE: I did not know what the root password was so I deleted it via the 
PhpMyAdmin interface that came with the package via localhost....

Hope this helps....
