ODBC - MySQL Connection error in c#

Question

I tried to access MySql Database using ODBC in C#

But i got an error as:

ERROR [HY000] [MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver]Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

Whats wrong here? What i have to recheck in my control panel settings?

Code is as follows:

 private void Form2_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            gridfill();

        }

        string MyConnectionString = @"server=localhost;userid=admin;password=admin;database=blood"; 

        private void gridfill()

        {

            MySqlConnection con = null;

            try

            {

                con = new MySqlConnection(MyConnectionString);

                con.Open();

                MySqlCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand();

                //cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM blood";

                MySqlDataAdapter da = new MySqlDataAdapter();

                da.SelectCommand = new MySqlCommand("SELECT * FROM blood", con);

                MySqlCommandBuilder cb = new MySqlCommandBuilder(da);

                DataSet ds = new DataSet();

                da.Fill(ds);

                dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;

            }

            catch (MySqlException err) 

            {

                MessageBox.Show("Error: " + err.ToString());

            }

            

           

            finally 

            {

                con.Close();

            }

        }
