Hello,

I am using the MySQL database from vb.net. I don't have any problems
using the database from code with the MySQL ODBC 3.51 drivers. However, I
have been unable to use the OdbcDataAdapter and other database object related
wizards for establishing a connection through the GUI tools. I have noticed
that there are some third party products that make these objects work with
MySQL but I really don't won't to spend the extra money to get one. So, I
have two questions. One, is there any real benefit to using the wizards in
creating these objects? Two, why can't the wizards seem to establish the
right connection to the MySQL database but the manually written code can.

Thanks
 
you should ask this question in the mySQL section of www.asp.net - chances
are you'll get an answer there.
