Question
-
I'm trying Visual Basic 2010 Professional for evaluation and am trying to connect to our MySQL database. I receive the following error:
HY000 [MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver][mysqld-4.0.15-nt]Driver doesn't support this yet
Do I need a driver? (I really love the new IDE, we currently run VB6.)
Thank you.

Have you tried using the MySQL .NET Connector instead? Probably preferable to the ODBC driver.

No, I haven't, I'll give it a try. Thanks.
The download required a different version than Visual Studio 2010. The problem turned out to be a wrong server designation.
