The workaround in this bug doesn't work on MacOS 10.14.1 with the latest Excel 2016. I was able to get the driver to load by moving copies of the library dependencies in /Lib/ODBC I used install_name_tool to change the dylib load paths of the library files. However, I still get sandbox failures trying to talk to the socket on /tmp/mysql.sock

I got the same mysql.sock error trying to access MySQL from Excel 16 on macOS Catalina. I changed the SERVER = localhost in odbc.ini from localhost to the IP address of the server running MySQL and can now run SQL queries successfully from Excel. Its all very fiddly and took a lot of searching around to get this working so it would be good if it worked first time,
