Hi!

It does not matter, what kind of database you are using. With the correct ConnectionString and the Correct Database Provider you can connect to each kind of database (oracle,access,Sql-Server (2005,20008),.....)

A lot of connection-Strings are listed here:

And a short C#-Example connecting to DB with a connectionString:
