    This one is in c#. hence c# code is not all that different from c++ code, just convert.. Populate data from database in a ComboBox (c#) http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/comboboxhtmlpage.aspx

      Even if you do get a sample, and convince the guy to give you a job, you will fail in it very soon because you know nothing about C++ and MFC. And dont hnink because you know C# you can pick up C++. You are going to be in a world of pain if you take this job. And you are going to damage your reputation when the boss relises what a dishonest liar you are and sacks you. Get a job that matches your skills. Or learn new skills.

              Right, so if your boss is happy to let you learn on the job then sit down at a computer with Visual Studio installed, and the MSDN, and go through the MFC tutorials. You will learn all about creating apps, adding controls, manipulating data and so on.

                Hi, I'm assuming you are going to use ADO (not ADO.NET). I have some experience in developing apps that use MS SQL DB, ADO and MFC in C++ (since 2002). Sorry to say I don't have a code sample I can give you but you might take a look at this: A set of ADO classes - version 2.20[^]. I have not used that code myself but it looks like it will take care of connecting to the SQL DB and getting data from it.

                  Try to ignore those A-holes. With 8M+ members quite a few are "less than perfect". I think you are very brave to enter the harsh world of C++, MFC and ADO - coming from your C# background. I wish you well.
