Hi Samuel,\
You can use this code:\

```
using System;using System.Data;using System.Windows.Forms;using System.Data.OleDb; namespace WindowsApplication1{    public partial class Form1 : Form    {        public Form1()        {            InitializeComponent();        }         private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)        {            string connetionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=your .mdb file;";            string sql = "SELECT * FROM Authors";            OleDbConnection connection = new OleDbConnection(connetionString);            OleDbDataAdapter dataadapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(sql, connection);            DataSet ds = new DataSet();            connection.Open();            dataadapter.Fill(ds, "Authors_table");            connection.Close();            dataGridView1.DataSource = ds;            dataGridView1.DataMember = "Authors_table";        }    }}
```
