Re: Trying to connect to MySql from Visual Studio

Hi Guys,

Connector/NET integration into Visual Studio Express has never been supported, because Microsoft doesn't allow it, see (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/danielfe/archive/2007/05/31/visual-studio-express-and-testdriven-net.aspx).

If you install the C/Net in a machine with Visual Studio Pro, Ultimate, you should be able to get it working.

Having said that, you can still use MySql.Data.dll as any other assembly in Visual Studio Express:

Please refer to the C/Net official documentation:
Connection string options reference:

Thanks.
