Hi.
How should I correctly install ByteFX in VS.NET IDE? I just used
Tools-> Add/Remove Toolbox Items.. and add ByteFX.MySqlClient.dll to
Toolbox. What should I do with ByteFX.MySqlClient.Design.dll? I asked
because once I read in microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet mail
like this:
‘(…)ByteFx.Data.dll, it shows at design time a dialog to create a
MySql connection string (…)'
And I wondered why I didn't have this in my IDE.

You might also just reference the assembly from project if you use it only
from code.

What should I do with ByteFX.MySqlClient.Design.dll?

Normally *Design* assembly is used only for design time and should not be
referenced from project.
Instead it should be placed into GAC.
So, you don't have to do anything with it if it is already there.
(I didn't yet try mysqlclient however this is normal design.)
