Error using ODBC data provider to connect to mysql db

I'm triyng to connect to mysql db with .net in c# for a .net web application

I've tryed this connection
OdbcConnection cConn = new OdbcConnection(sqlConnectionString);

with this connection string

string sqlConnectionString = "Driver={MySQL};SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=test ; user id=root; password=test;";

but I keep getting this erorr

ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

After getting to this point its bugging me to hell now. Looked up a lot of formus on this error but none seemed to help. If someone could point me to anything that would help, it would be greatly appreciated
