In order to query your mySQL Database with ASP.NET script, you need to organize an ODBC connection with us first. The following the snippet of the code:

<%@ Page Language="VB" %>

<%@ import Namespace="System.Data.Odbc" %>

Public Sub Page_Load()

Dim mySelectQuery As String = "SELECT * FROM tblTest"

Dim myConnection As New OdbcConnection("DSN=<username>_mysqlConn")

Dim myCommand As New OdbcCommand(mySelectQuery, myConnection)

myConnection.Open()

Dim myReader As OdbcDataReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader()

Try

While myReader.Read()

Response.Write (myReader("name") & "<br>")

End While

Finally

//always call Close when done reading.

myReader.Close()

//always call Close when done with connection.

myConnection.Close()

End Try

End Sub

</script>
