Database application in C# .net

Hi,

I am quite new to C# an am wanting to build a small database application. The database will be stored remotely in MySQL and the program will just be able to perform simple querys to the database.

I have tried using the MySQL .net connector provided by MySQL but it requires the connector software to be installed on the client machine which isn't always an option. I also looked at OBDC but it seems that to connect to MySQL it too needs extra software.

Are there any other methods of connection that are not dependant on other software?
What about a client / server setup, how would I go about doing that? winsock?

Thanks for your help,
