I am writing an application that has to manage a small database. one of the tasks of the application is that it has to retrieve the information of a company. I tried reading the data into my List(Of String) but somehow it keeps claiming not to return any data. But when I use the debugger, I see that it has 9 fields in it (visibleFields property)
this is the code I am using for the moment:
(please ignore the huge SQL injection security hole

this is the code I am using for the moment:
Public Function getFirmaDetails(ByVal firma As String) As List(Of String)
Dim Query As String = "SELECT tblplatenfirma.fldaanspreking, tblplatenfirma.fldtav, tblplatenfirma.fldnaam, tblplatenfirma.fldstraat, tblplatenfirma.fldpost, tblplatenfirma.fldgem, tblplatenfirma.fldtel, tblplatenfirma.fldfax, tblplatenfirma.fldreknr FROM tblplatenfirma WHERE (((tblplatenfirma.fldnaam)=""" + firma + """));"
Dim connection As New OleDbConnection(My.Settings.Oefen2010__Peeters_ConnectionString)
connection.Open()
Dim command As New OleDbCommand(Query, connection)
Dim reader As OleDbDataReader = command.ExecuteReader()
If reader.HasRows Then
Dim results As List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
For i = 0 To reader.FieldCount - 1
'now read the data in the database
results.Add(reader(i))
Next
Return results
Else
Return Nothing
End If
End Function
