First of all install mysql-connector-net-6.0.7 and follow this:

Right click on the program and add reference then browse then mysql.data.dll then add module

Name it connection and copy this codes

Imports System Imports System.Data Imports MySql.Data.MySqlClient Module connection Public conn As New MySqlConnection

Public Sub ConnectDatabase()

    Try
        If conn.State = ConnectionState.Closed Then
            conn.ConnectionString = "Server=Dell-PC;Data Source=localhost:3306;Database=dbquicklend;User ID=root;"
            conn.Open()
        End If

    Catch myerror As Exception
        MsgBox("Error in Database Connection", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation + MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Error")
    End Try
End Sub

Public Sub DisconnectDatabase()
    Try
        conn.Close()
    Catch myerror As MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException
    End Try
End Sub

End Module

just call connectdatabase anywhere in the program you would like to connect or call disconnectdatabase when you need to disconnect
