    Our ASP.NET controls (including WebGrid, WebDataGrid, and WebHierarchicalDataGrid) are not specific to any database server.  You use data objects, such as SqlDataSource, as the data source for any of these grids.  It is then the responsibility of the data source to communicate with the database, and not the grid.

    I don't myself have familiarity with MySQL.  Even so, if you can pull the MySQL data into .NET using a DataSource object, you can bind it to WebDataGrid.
