Connecting fields with data

[RickLiebespach]

I'm totally new to VB.Net (I have some VFP background)
I have created a form/screen that respresents the UI I want, and I've created an Access database that contains some test data.

The problem I'm having is
how do I associate the fields on my form with the data in the tables of my database?

I've placed an odbcConnection on my form, but I still can't figure out how to associate the
Omnia_Act.Contacts.Company data with the
frmOmnia_Act_Top.txtCompany field on my form.

TIA,

Assuming you have a textbox on the form called say textbox1

textbox1.DataBindings.Add("Text", dt, "field_name&quot

dt - is in my case a Datatable
"field_name" is a column name in my table.

...if it works dont mess with it

I you set up the conn/adapter/dataset with the IDE, then bind the dataset field to the text box(the same way)...
