Hi Rafael,

Is it possible to do database stuff with MonoBasic yet?
Probably yes.

But just now I'm far from my machines to be able to test your code, I'll test it later and report it here.

For example, here is a simple program that works on .NET below:

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Module Module1

    Sub Main()
        Dim con As SqlConnection
        con = New SqlConnection("Server=localhost;database=pubs;user
id=someuser;password=somepass")
Unless you are going to run with mono on windows, probably you'll have to adjust this connection string, to use another machine as the server.

        con.Open()
        Dim cmd As SqlCommand
        cmd = con.CreateCommand()
        cmd.CommandText = "select fname from employee"
        Dim reader As SqlDataReader
        reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
        If (reader.Read()) Then
            Dim firstName As String
            firstName = reader.GetString(0)
            Console.WriteLine(firstName)
        Else
            Console.WriteLine("No data returned.")
        End If
    End Sub

End Module
The rest of the code looks quite runnable for the current state of mbas generated code and vb.net runtime support in our class library.

If you don't beat me on this, I'll report later.

Thanks for your interest,
