Visual basic 2008 DB Oracle
Hello,
Really a newbie here, with a simple problem (maybe). If you can help I would be really grateful.
So, the problem is that I want to (SQL) select from a table in an Oracle database, and show the results of the query in the VB application, in a Excel like manner (rows, columns, selectable, etc.). Or in a SQL developer manner.
Haw can I do that? Browsed through a lot of tutorials and howtos on the internet, did not get anywhere.
If someone can please help, point me in the right direction, or link a good tutorial, or something, I would be really gratefull.
Thanx a lot.

The actual SQL statements work the same on all systems, but you need to change the connection string to match the provider
You can find that here: http://www.connectionstrings.com/

I did manage to connect to the database. The software is already successfully issuing INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements to the database.
I got stuck when trying to query the database, as I do not know display in my application the result of the query. I suppose it's got something to do with DataGridView (correct me if I am wrong), but I did not manage to successfully create a datatable, a dataset and feed it into a DataGridView programatically.
Any advices?
Thanx.
