Connector/ODBC  (3.51.13+) has an option:

4194304   Enable auto-reconnect

I've never used it, but I have a pile of ODBC MySQL data sources I use with
VB6 and I checked to see if the option was there.

See also:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/myodbc-configuration-connection-param
eters.html -- it's not foolproof nor appropriate in all situations.
