Correct ConnectionString is enough, choose one for .NET from

Basically, the easiet way is to from the ToolBox Data Menu, add
OLEDBCONNECTION, and DATAADAPTER, configure those and generate your dataset.
Then bind the DataSet to your control(s) on the form.

Really you need to buy and ADO.NET book, read and learn it and post your
questions to the ADONET newsgroup rather than this one. There are many
examples in the help. Search on OLEDBDATADAPTER OR OLEDBCONNECTION
