SharePoint -how to show List data on a custom web part/ web user control?

I am trying every option to show List data on a web part and web user control, but I am not finding any code examples on this. What namespace should I import?

I am using WSS 3.0 and I will later upgrade to MOSS 2007. I am aware of the SmartPart project and I can use it in my environment.

Thank you very much for your help.

You should first look at the Data View Web Part (DVWP) to see if that will fit your needs. With some XLST/JavaScript you can get very creative with this.

Data View Web Part Basics

Otherwise you need to understand two things :-

Creating a Basic web part

This is for VS2010/SharePoint 2010 but you will find similar walkthroughs for other versions such as :-

Accessing SharePoint List data

Then once you've got your basic web part you need to know how to use the object model to open a list and iterate through the items in a list to display the data in whatever funky way you want.
