Mysql driver for visual studio 2008

For example, a simple Gridview example worked perfectly, picking up multiple pages of data from a table. The next step was to use the advanced Gridview features which include Edit. This is where my problem occurs. This then reveals a select statement that is displayed but cannot be edited. Having a primary key in the table that is selected with the query is essential for the Gridview setup to work and this is often pointed out in forum discussions of the problems with gridview.

Hoping this might solve some problems, I downloaded a 3rd party Gridview product and it installed into the VS toolbox easily. However on configuration of this new control, it uses the same VS data source dialogs which dead end in the grayed out 'Advanced SQL generation options'. Next I followed some suggestions I found elsewhere. Created new project. Since your issue is more related with the web developing, I would like to redirect you to the ASP.
