title: How do I add a reference to the MySQL connector for .NET?
body: <p>What does this mean: <strong><em>Next add reference to: MySql.Data</em></strong> </p>
  
  <p>actually I have downloaded mysql connector/net.
  by following these instructions:</p>
  
  <p>First, you need to install the mysql connector/net, it is located at: <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/1.0.html" rel="noreferrer">http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/1.0.html</a> </p>
  
  <p>Next create a new project</p>
  
  <p>Next add reference to: MySql.Data</p>
  
  <p>Next add "using MySql.Data.MySqlClient;"
   but im not able to install the connector.</p>
