Description:
I installed mysql-connector-net-6.4.3 from msi.  I am using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and was hoping to use the MySQL as a data source.  The connector does not appear to be picked up by Web Developer where I want to create a connection.

How to repeat:
Install MSVWD 2010 Express.  Install mysql-connector-net-6.4.3.msi.  From MSVWD try to open a new db connection.  The MySQL data source/driver is not listed.
