One of the first things to pick up on is the connection string. A good reference is www.connnectionstrings.com to get you started. A decent reference for selecting, inserting, updating and deleting records in a database is msdn.microsoft.com. You can also stop by a book store and pick up a book on database's. I have codeing websites and windows forms to database's for 5yrs and still need to reference something, but that just might be my memory..... ps - I also found www.asp101.net a good starting point.

Will do, thanz for the suggestion... As to go to a book store and get a good book, I wish I could. Where I lived in, have the world's crappiest book collection in the whole world, not to mentioned outdated. Only way is either go to West Malaysia or Singapore and visit their amazingly huge book stores there but air plane tickets ain't exactly cheap.. haha.. Anyway, thanz for your help... Ur the man...!!
