C# with My SQL

Please I need a good walk-through on how to link my C# form with MySQL database. I also want to be able to retrieve data from my database. Thanks.

No problem. Here you go: 1. switch on your PC 2. open a browser 3. navigate to the CodeProject home page 4. enter C# MySQL in the "article search" box and click the Go! button. 5. from the 100+ hits you'll get (10 per page), read some of the titles 6. pick the most attractive ones, and read say three of those articles. It is all there. :)

Please use <PRE> tags for code snippets, they preserve indentation, and improve readability.

Start here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/connector-net.html[^] Connector/Net is MySQL's own library for connecting your .NET application to a MySQL database. The link above includes the documentation, software and tutorials. You will find it is essentially the same as using Microsoft's own Sql Server ADO.NET component. If you don't know what that is, search the google for ADO.NET and expect to spend a solid few days learning about Connections, DataAdapters, Commands, etc. Have fun!
