I Installed odbc.net data provider, created a DSN. Now I want to create a simple vb.net application to test the data connection. I go to server explore and add a connection to my database, but I can not see the mySql odbc driver from the provider list. why? Did I do something wrong? thanks.

Here is a good article.
Anyway
Dim Conn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection("Provider=MySQLProv;Data Source=DATABASE;UserId=USERNAME;
Password=PASSWORD;"
this should call your DSN without problems.
