So I believe this problem started when I deleted a dataset and brought it back into Visual Studio 2013. I'm using a mysql backend with this application, so I have the dotconnect for mysql extension. The connection string I was using worked perfectly fine until I redid the dataset. Here is my app.config:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <configSections>
    </configSections>
    <connectionStrings>
        <add name="RMSteel.My.MySettings.RMSteelConnectionString" connectionString="User Id=rmsteel;Password=password;Host=192.168.0.46;Database=RMSteel;Persist Security Info=True"
            providerName="Devart.Data.MySql" />
    </connectionStrings>
    <startup>
        <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0"/>
           
    </startup>
</configuration>
(Don't worry, this application is on an intranet with no internet connection whatsoever, that's why I left the whole connection string).
So the build succeeds but after the build when it is loading the first form that's when it fails. I have been fiddling around with different things. This line works when the form loads:
Code:
MsgBox(RMSteel.My.Settings.RMSteelConnectionString)
And this line is where it throws the errors:
Code:
 Me.EmployeeTableAdapter.Fill(Me.RMSteelDataSet.Employee)
These are the first two lines in the form load function.
I'm really at a loss here, and need to get this fixed since I've done a ton of work on this application already. I'm the only developer here so I don't have a superior to ask.
Any help is greatly appreciated. I did a stack overflow post but no one has answered, I will link to it just in case there is extra info there.
