Error MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection is not defined

Hi,

I am trying to upgrade my connection from ODBC to MySql Connector/NET and I am getting this error message:

MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlConnection is not defined

I have added the name space so i am confused by this error.

Could it be that I have an older version of IIS and this namespace is not on my developemnt PC?

Thanks

step

1) done
2) not sure how to do that. I did not do that for the ODBC version, can you help?
3) I added the import on the page and in the config file

can you help with the .dll reference?

Actually i think that i have got it, I added a bin folder to my app and added the MySql.Data.dll file to it.

I was also looking on this website for help too.
