Hi
I did the following in an effort to connect to mysql using VB.net on a
windows XP pro machine.
I made reference to and used the import statement as follows :
Imports Microsoft.Data. Odbc
I then created my connection with the following :
Dim objConnection As New
OleDbConnection ("driver={MySql };uid=root;pwd= ;server=127.0.0 .1;database=dbn r
gplc;OPTION=179 23")
but I keep getting the folowing error :
An OLE DB Provider was not specified in the ConnectionStrin g. An example
would be, 'Provider=SQLOL EDB;'.
Any ideas as to where I am going wrong ??
Thanks for the help so far.

Create a file with the extension .udl. Try to open it. It will open with
the little "connection wizard" (I can't remember what the real name of it
is.) Set up all your connection information, test the connection, and save.
Then open the UDL file with notepad and that will be the connection string
to use.

Mysql uses its own providers which are oledb. You need to set references to
bytefx and sharpziplib and then do the imports thing. That will make
namespaces available to your code. All of them start with MYSQL.... etc. http://www.able-consulting.com/dotne...NativeProvider

OLE DB and ODBC are 2 different technologies. You imported the Odbc library,
but used the Oledb library in your code. If you need to use ODBC, use the
ODBC library classes.

Is there no way that I can connect to mysql using ODBC?

Of course there is. You just use the ODBC library classes
(System.Data.Od bc), not the OleDb (System.Data.Ol edb) classes.
