I was looking at it because of the example in the MySQL Reference Manual. I not sure why that is the "prescribed way" shown in the documentation. If I could answer your question with a question: Why does the MySQL documentation offer ODBC as the solution?

The Sample for vb.net lists "Imports Microsoft.Data.Odbc" in the sample code however when I use the code I get an error: "Namespace or type 'ODBC' for the imports 'Microsoft.Data.Odbc' cannot be found. When trying to add the dll as a reference I cannot find it on my system. Anyone have some insight into this?
