Reading columns from MySQL Database

[yagelnnn1]

Hey, does anybody know how to read cloumn from MySQL?
I mean, like if I have in my MySQL the schema "Bdatabase" and the table "accounts".
In that table there are username and password. How can I do in my program that it'll read the username and password?

try this query if you want to retrieve the columns of your table

SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_NAME='TableName'
