Insert Sql Table Names from database into Combobox vb.net

[TheSaboteur13]

Hi

I want to add the table names from a database in sql server to a combobox with vb.net windows programming.

Its a customer accounts database where for instance I add a new Account holder which creates a new Table and when I want to view a specific account holder a want to select that account holder from a combobox that views the Table names.

Im completely lost about this and if anyone can help me would be great.

Thanks
Hannes

Imports System.data.sqlclient
Imports system.data

dim objcon as new sqlconnection
dim dt as new datatable

dim str as string = " DataBase Path "

If objcon.state = connectionstate.closed()
objcon.connectionstring = str
objcon.open()
end if

dim query as string="select * from infomation_schema.tables"
dim da as new sqldataadapter(query,objcon)
da.fill(dt)

dropdownlist1.datasource = dt
dropdownlist1..datatextfield = "table_name"
dropdownlist1..databind()

objcon.close()

also you can use code below to connect to your database

"data source=.\sqlexpress;attachdbfilename=|datadirectory|\database.mdf;_
integrated security=true;user instance=true;"

RED Desc : use your DataBase name
