mengambil data dari SQL di VB (bagian 2)

Anda melewatkan connectionString
Jika ingin mengisi list dari DB ada banyak cara

Dengan DataReader

Imports System.Data.Sql
Imports System.Data.SqlClient


Public Class Form1

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Dim connectionString As String = "Data Sourec=localhost;........."
    Dim conn As New SqlConnection(connectionString)
    conn.Open()
    Dim comm As New SqlCommand("SELECT name FROM Table_1", conn)
    Dim reader As SqlDataReader = comm.ExecuteReader
    /* As it is not working i commented this
    listBox1.ItemsSource = dt; // use this instead of  ListBox1.Items.Add(dt)
    //because Add event add only one item in the list. 
     */
    Dim i As Integer
    i=0
    while reader.read() 
    listbox1.Items.Add(dr(i).ToString);
    i++
    End While

 End Sub
End Class

Dengan DataTable

Imports System.Data.Sql
Imports System.Data.SqlClient


Public Class Form1

Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Dim connectionString As String = "Data Sourec=localhost;........."
    Dim conn As New SqlConnection(connectionString)
    conn.Open()
    // Create new DataAdapter
    SqlDataAdapter a = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM EmployeeIDs", c)
    // Use DataAdapter to fill DataTable
    DataTable dt = new DataTable();
    a.Fill(dt);
    ListBox1.DataSource = dt;
    ListBox1.DataTextField = "name";



 End Sub
End Class

Parameter lain dari string koneksi tergantung pada keamanan Anda dan semua itu. Anda harus melihat tautan ini String koneksi untuk SQL Server 2008
