Using database connection in other forms

So I have a mysqlconnection object in my main form and I want to be able to use it in my other forms (mdi childrens) directly in VS. How do I do that?
Right now, if I click on "Connection", the mdi parent connection object is not shown and I can't use it.
Thanks!

If you change the Modifers property to Public, is it visible in the child designer? Just a thought....

What version of MySQLDirect .NET do you use?
Where do you click on "Connection"?

I use the latest version of the MySQLDirect 3
And it's when I click on any mysqldirect component in the designer view of VS. If I put a MySqlConnecton component in my main form (mdi parent), I am unable to use it in the design view of VS with any other components (MySqlCommand, MySqlCommandBuilder, etc...).

Where are these other components (MySqlCommand, MySqlCommandBuilder, etc...)?
Try to use MySQLDirect .NET 4.0 beta.

I am indeed able to use the new beta in design mode.
Yay!
