Description:
In the download ZIP for mysql-connector-net-1.0.6-noinstall, the help file MySql.Data.chm in the doc directory is an old version (it is missing most of the detailed documentation, e.g. examples, explanation of connection string parameters, etc).

This information is in the source file, and also in the MySql.Data.xml file in the bin directory.

How to repeat:
Download mysql-connector-net-1.0.6-noinstall from the web site and unzip; open the MySql.Data.chm in the doc directory and look at the description of the ConnectionString parameter for the MySqlConnection class.

Suggested fix:
I simply re-ran NDoc over the MySql.Data.dll and MySql.Data.xml files and it created an updated version of the help file.

I think this is just a packaging issue.

Fixed category (initial bug submission only allowed me to select general Connector/Net category).

I have checked the latest version (1.0.7) and this now seems to be correct. No changes made.
