Hi,

Its very easy work with MySQL as if you already work with SQL Server.

First download the latest version from the following link.

http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/[^]

After installing it will give the MySQL.Data.DLL namespace.

Add this .dll to your solution and work as you work with SQL Server.

The above namespace,having all classes as there in System.Data.SQLClient.

Refer the following links.

1. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/connector-net-ref-mysqlclient.html[^]

2. http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/[^]

Regards,
Kiran.
