    Hello,

    I'm trying to connect to my Mysql database, I've installed MySql Connector 6.4.3 without problems but it seems it is not working.

    When I try to add a connection threw the Database explorer I can't see "MySql" in the DataSource window...

    What may I did wrong?

    Any one to help me?

    Thanx

    Could the problem comes from the Express edition?

    Is there any limitation at this level?

    So now I'm trying with dotConnect for MySQL... I can see now MySql in the database explorer but on the next step it ask me the connection string(isn't it supose to generate it?)

    So I give it : Server=localhost;Database=***;Uid=root;Pwd=***;

    But it says: "Unknow connection string parameter. Parameter name: value"

    What Am I supose to do? I can't get it work in localhost...

    Blops,

    i am useing .net connector and no problems at all. I guess u got menu item in database explorer. Just run it and and specify user, password, server and database as u did. But i did not get why u use *** for database value? Actually you have to choose one database name that you have already created ( I used workbench to create DB and then did exported it).
