I'm now using Visual Studio 2008 Pro Edition. I installed Connector/Net 5.2 with Visual Studio integration. I restarted Visual Studio, and MySQL database now appears in the list of data providers. I entered my database information, and clicked "Test Connection" and it succeeds, but when I try to close the Add Connection dialog, I get an error:

Unable to find the requested .NET Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.

Have I missed a step in setting this up?

This was a problem with the CTP version of VS and the solution was this.

Even if you are running a RTM version, it might be worth checking your config file.

I'm not using Vista, I'm using XP. And I couldn't find the line they said to comment out in the machine.config file.

Okay. Same error, wrong solution.
