You have to address the issue? Elaborate it more.. And please follow the basics of "How to ask questions in Q&A" !!

DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.

Try to below code:

VB

 Dim oda As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter
con = New OleDbConnection("..........")
 con.Open()
 oda.SelectCommand = New OleDbCommand
 oda.SelectCommand.Connection = con
 oda.SelectCommand.CommandText = "select * from Tablename"
 Try
     dr = oda.SelectCommand.ExecuteReader
 Catch ex As Exception
     MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString)
 End Try
 ComboBox1.Items.Clear()
 While dr.Read
     ComboBox1.Items.Add(dr.Item(0))
 End While
 dr.Close()
