    Download the connector - http://www.mysql.com/products/connector/net/
    This gives you the assemblies you need. They are all derived from standard Ado.Net interfaces, so look up some tutorials on Ado.Net, and where you have say OdbcConnection, change it for MySqlConnection.

    Pretty easy to use too.

    I only have the express version of C#, but in that you right click the solution in solution explorer and "Add Reference"
