title: MySqlConnector 6.9.9 for VS2008 (framework 3.5)
body: <p>I have just downloaded the newest version of the MySqlConnector ( <a href="https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/net/</a> ), which is currently Version 6.9.9.</p>
  
  <p>The previous version 6.9.8, I could use in Visual Studio 2008 with framework 3.5.
  But the download now only contains assemblies for v4.0 and v4.5.</p>
  
  <p>Normally I just update the reference to mysql.data.dll in my project, but now I can only change it to the v4/4.5 versions, which obviously are not valid in combination with a V3.5 project. </p>
  
  <p>Could anyone tell me where to find or how to download the v3.5 assembly for version 6.9.9? 
  Or is V6.9.8 just the latest version for framework 3.5? (although I can't find this info anywhere)</p>
  
  <p>BTW: if this is not the correct place to ask, please point to the correct community.</p>
