System.Data.OLEDB Connector: Any Provider for MySQL?

I hope am allowed to post this here!

Please am new to MySQL. I have downloaded the MySql Connector for .NET and been able to use it. For some need of application design preference I will like to.

1). NOT use system.Data.ODBC connector

but rather

2). use system.Daata.OLEDB connector

for applications I build that connect to varying datasources. Do we have a Provider for MySql so that I can connect to an MySql database using the System.Data.OLEDB connector? That is what do I use for the "Provider=xxx" item in the connection string? NOTE: =>> for thsi app the MySQL .NET Connector is not appropriate as it cannot be switched dynamically bw varying RDBMS (MySQL, ORACLE, ACCESS, ...) at run time based on user preferance.

thanks
