If you want to connect remotely by any remote VB, C# application to your mysql database, you need to add the GRANT statement to a mysql user such as root or other user name and on which database. Something like this:
GRANT ALL ON yourdbname.* TO 'root'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'rootpassword'
Another like this:
GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON yourdbname.tablename TO 'someuser'@'%' INDENTIFIED BY 'userpa
