Connect and Retrieve data from sql server database

George Paroglou

I am trying to connect and retrieve data from my local sql server taking the searchable data from a textbox. Can somebody give me an example of code that I can achieve these? I read that in order to do this connection, I have to use either the ADO.NET or LINQ of ADO.NET... To be honest I didn't understand their differences.

I would appreaciate if anyone could help me.

Thanks in advanced.

Look at the following. I know that the Forms section is quite large, but you will see the abundance of useful material.
- ADO.NET in C#
- Windows Forms in C#
