Retrieving records from Database in C#

I have a database connected to my program, I want to search this database records looking for a value entered by user previously in a text box. Any one have an idea how to search the whole database for that value.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Two simple steps.

  1. Get the value from the text box (depends on the language you are using)
  2. Execute a select query on the database using the value from the text box as a parameter in the where clause of the query.

However - you need to clarify the question a lot more in order to get a more sensible answer.

What languages are you using?
