To achieve this requirement, you need to create a "connectionstring" to connect them. Here is a simple demo that read data to "DataGridView".
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// builder connection string
SqlConnectionStringBuilder builder = new SqlConnectionStringBuilder();
// set server
builder.DataSource = @"datasource name";
// set database
builder.InitialCatalog = @"catalog name";
// access the database using the existing windows security certificate
builder.IntegratedSecurity = true;
//// if you want to use user id and password
//// set user name
//builder.UserID = "Kyle";
//// set password
//builder.Password = "123456";
using (SqlConnection sqlconn = new SqlConnection(builder.ConnectionString))
{
SqlCommand sqlcomm = new SqlCommand("select * from Table_1", sqlconn);
SqlDataAdapter sqlAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter(sqlcomm);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
sqlAdapter.Fill(ds, "Table_1");
dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables["Table_1"];
}
}
