MySQLDirect .NET provides support for BLOB and TEXT types in MySQL. To get these values from DataReader you can use GetBytes, GetChars, GetMySqlBlob, GetMySqlText methods. BLOB value can be represented as byte[], string, MySqlBlob or MySqlText to pass as a parameter. Please refer to MySQLDirect .NET documentation for details.

Hello,

Actually I would like to download MySQLDirect .NET Mobile version 2.70 for .NET CF 1.1 to look at the documentation. However, after downloading the mysqlnetmob.msi, and run it, and after answering several questions, the program tries to contact certain server, and then time out.

Is the documentation in the mobile version same as in the normal .net version? Thank you.

MySQLDirect .NET Mobile has the same documentation as MySQLDirect .NET.
MySQLDirect .NET Mobile includes demo projects for Pocket PC.
To solve the problem you described try to connect to MySQL database through IP address.
