visual basic 2008 express and microsoft access

Goodevening
I am new to the community and I would like to post a question. I think the solution is simple I just couldnt find the right one.
I want to build a simpe program that will manage an microsoft access database to visual basic 2008. I noticed that there are significant changes to previous versions of visual basic.
Anyway, I would like a mdb file connected to my application and the user can change/update etc throught a form. I think I can do that but my major problem is that I cant connect the database
Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you in advance

How are you trying to connect to database ?
I selected the database from the wizard and I connected it to the "data binding" object. But I want to connect some textfields with the columns of the table.
I dont think it is difficult to make this connection I just dont know how to do that.
And as consider the "database" type of variable this just is not working in vs2008.
