What is the best way to get the field names from a table in SQL Server using VB.NET

Siv
Hi,
What is the best way to get the field names of a table in SQL server where
you only have Windows Authentication access to a database. Previously I have
used the SQLDMO object to get this, but now I do not have access to the
server using an SQL Server user account and am using the Windows
Authentication.

Any help appreciated.
