I'm pretty new to mySQL and Android development. I'm using Embarcadero XE5 to create a android application.. I have set up a remote mySQL server online. I want the Android app to connect to the remote mySQL server and display information from a row located in the table in something like a label when the program starts. I have read that android cannot directly connect to mySQL, so how should I go about doing this? Since I'm new to mySQL, can anyone help me to accomplish this? Even directing me to a useful tutorial about this will be a great help! I'm pretty new to mySQL and Android development
