Should it be in any other tabs?

Probably because DW only "sees" mySQL for PHP pages. I use it for regular
ASP pages, but I make a system DSN and use it. As for .NET? Its
functionality is limited at best in DW and all support for it will drop in
the next version AFAIK. Expressions Web or MS' Visual Studio are what most
..NET people use for their pages, I believe.
