Installing into Visual Studio .NET
The installer for Connector/Net does not currently register the components into the Visual Studio .NET
toolbox. To complete this process, you must following the steps below. Future versions of the installer
will perform these steps during the installation process.
Note Installation steps for Visual Studio .NET 2002 and 2003 are identical.
- With Visual Studio .NET running, right click on the toolbox to bring up the properties menu.
- Select Add Tab... and enter Connector/Net as the name.
- Now, with the Connector/Net tab open, right click on the toolbox again and select Add/Remove Items...
The Customize Toolbox dialog will appear.
- On the .NET Framework Components tab, click the Browse button and locate the MySql.Data.dll assembly you just
installed.
- Once selected, the components that can be added to the toolbox will appear highlighted and with their checkboxes
checked.
- Click OK to add the MySqlConnection, MySqlCommand, and MySqlDataAdapter components to your toolbox.
