Information about parts in a workgroup

Hi all, I work for a small company with a small budget. Rightnowwe are currently evaluating solidworks.  Unfortunatelywedon't have the budget for pdmworks right now.  I assumethatpdmworks for workgroups keeps better track of your solidworksfilesaccross a workgroup.

I downloaded the solidworks explorer and that seems reallycool. However if someone could help me with a simple question.

I have right now a MySQL dbase with all of my partinformationalready in it.  Stock size, customer names,finishes, partnumbers and allot of other info pertaining to asingle part. I have this database for many other programs andwebconnections where I work.

Some of this data I would like to be displayed on theblueprint. Is there a way to make a MySQL connection insolidworks, andput in MySQL queries so that I can pull the datafrom my dbase andshow it in a blueprint? Perhaps a plug-in or amacro?
