I'm trying to use a local MySQL database as the source for a DataGrid in VB.Net 2005. I have already installed the .Net Connector 1.0.7 and can connect to the database using just regular MySqlConnection connection string code, but I can't get the ability to add the MySQL database as a data source when using the DataGrid wizard. It doesn't come up as one of the types of databases I can choose from.

Here is the drop down list I'm talking about where I think a MySQL connection should show up:

Is there something I'm missing?

Click the Change button and select the MySQL data provider. Currently it's still using the ODBC provider.
