Connecting to MySQL directly
... through its libmysql.dll interface (Note: This DLL is a regular C DLL, not a COM DLL, hence no need to register it into Windows using REGSVR32.EXE, which will fail anyway.) The API can be found here. Access from an Excel sheet and VBA is here.

I found this on the following site - some of the stuff were links to get at the items mentioned.

While it is about VB5 - I'm sure it can be worked around to make it work in VB.NET.
Once at the site just use CTRL+F and search for mysql - it will bring you right to this section.
