I downloaded the connector for mysql (the dot net version). I then ran Microsoft Visual Web Developer, where I want to make an asp.net project that uses mysql. But when I tried to get Visual Web Developer to find the mysql.data.dll file, it could not add a reference to it, because the file was missing: it was not in the connector folder.
I did see source code for mysql.data.dll in the connector folder, which is written in csharp. So I downloaded Microsoft's compiler for csharp (dot net version) and tried to compile the source files. But I got all sorts of errors, including that the project file was wrong.
There must be some simple way of either getting hold of the dll, or creating it from source code.
But I can't find any posting on the net that says how to do this, even though some helpful folks have tried to list links that might be relevant.
Thanks,
