Please help me with my problem. I want to connect my vb.net application to mysql database. How can I do that?
whenever I use this connection string:

Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;

it won't work.
Plus, I don't know what server address means. I have used my site's address and IP address, but it won't work.

Any help will be an appreciation. Thank you!
