For the database connection you will be needing a connection string.

For this you can find the appropriate connection string here[^]. This one explains how it can be done. " Beginners guide to accessing SQL Server through C#[^] "

For the create, update, delete oerations we basically call the "CRUD Operations" you have to check these web pages;

Using ADO.NET for beginners[^]

http://www.csharp-station.com/Tutorials/AdoDotNet/Lesson01.aspx[^]

For more advanced level use LINQ;
