I went to create a new application and selected, the langug C# and it created 2 files default.aspx and default.cs

Now time to use the some code.

- First hurdle, trying to connect to the database at school
- Put a text box, enter a name in the box and then a button. On clicking the button I want to search for the name from a database and display
it in a grid. such as name, address and which class is the student taking. The database has the info on name address and class.

Please help me to get started. Thanks!
