title: MissingManifestResourceException
body: <p>I am trying to connect to mysql database from a .NET compact framework using C#. Each time I run the program, I get a missingmanifestresourceexception just at the point of opening the connection.
  Can any one please tell me how to go about this, I've lost four days already.</p>
  
  <p>P.S: I already added the reference Mysql.Data.CF.</p>
  
  <p>my code is as below</p>
  
  <pre><code>        string MyConString ="SERVER=localhost;" + "DATABASE=kunle;" + "UID=root;" + "PASSWORD=olakay;"+ "pooling=false;";
  
  
          MySqlConnection connection = new MySqlConnection(MyConString);
          MySqlCommand command = connection.CreateCommand();
          MySqlDataReader Reader;
          command.CommandText = "select * from mycustomers";
          try
          {
  
  
  
              connection.Open(); //***this is the point where I get the error***
  
  
              MessageBox.Show("Connected successfully");
  
          }
          catch (MySqlException asd)
          {
              MessageBox.Show("" + asd.Message);
          }
          catch (MissingManifestResourceException ex)
          {
              MessageBox.Show("" + ex.Message);
          }
          Reader = command.ExecuteReader();
          while (Reader.Read())
          {
              //statement goes here;
          }
          connection.Close();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>will be looking forward to an answer from anyone.</p>
