- MySQL does not appear on New Connection>Change Data Source. therefore need to use preconfigured connection string. this is a known issue that I am working on. - SqlDataSource puts square bracket [] around column names. therefore, need to go around this problem by using custom code or editing code behind. this is a known issue and there is no work around. It's a bug in VS - advance SQL generation does not work. Therefore, need to generate Insert, Delete,update manually this should be fixed in 5.2.2 - using "where" adds question mark only "?" therefore need to edit code behind. not sure about this one.

Hi Kris. I would like to close this report now as Reggie seems to be aware of all of the problems related to your report. Do you agree?

Still adds [] to column names in 6.2.2 of plugin

Chuck, it is *VS* that's adding brackets, please reread Reggie's comment.

Tonci, unfortunately that's not very helpful. I think I can safely say that the connector's usefulness would be greatly improved if it played nicely with Visual Studio! It is my understanding that square brackets are used by SQL Server to enclose strings that should be interpreted literally, which is why VS adds them to all your table and column names (in case they include spaces, for example). This is similar to MySQL's use of the backquote (`), which you can easily see when you generate CREATE statements in Query Browser. A simple replacement _might_ do the trick, though that's obviously kind of a hack solution.

Chuck, I do not follow you. Can you please add sample project so I can test. Michael, I agree but, actually, VS2008 and MSSQL2008 are so closely knit together one can't say which service is where. Check BI for example. So I do not know if this is even possible. As for the rest of the stuff, it has been handled in later versions of c/NET so closing the report but will keep monitoring it.

After consulting with Bogdan, I've decided to mark this report as verified in: - SqlDataSource puts square bracket [] around column names. therefore, need to go around this problem by using custom code or editing code behind. This is a known issue and there is no work around. It's a bug in VS Reggie, can we work around this, maybe as Michael suggested?

Reggie Burnett
This is fixed in 6.3.1. This is a new feature so we did not implement in older releases. Please see worklog 5282. This needs the new connection string option documented

Details of 'Sql Server Mode' connection string option have been added to the connection string option reference in the Connector/NET manual. A 'change' entry has also been added to the 6.3.1 changelog: Connector/NET was not compatible with Visual Studio wizards that used square brackets to delimit symbols. Connector/NET has been changed to include a new connection string option Sql Server mode that supports use of square brackets to delimit symbols.
