Para conectarse desde delphi a MySQL use BDE. Puedes tener problemas pero siga las siguientes instrucciones para hacerlo funcionar.
Saludos.
You must use BDE Version 3.2 or newer. Set the Don't optimize column width option field when connecting to MySQL. Also, here is some potentially useful Delphi code that sets up both an ODBC entry and a BDE entry for MyODBC (the BDE entry requires a BDE Alias Editor that is free at a Delphi Super Page near you.
