Be sure you have references set up correctly. You can import them at the
top of your routine.

Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient 'this is probably the one you're missing

Or double-click on "My Project", go to the "References" tab, and add them
there.

You need something like this:

Dim da as SqlDataAdapter= New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT ID,Name FROM Table",
your_db_conn)
Dim ds As New DataSet

da.Fill(ds,"TableName")

combobox1.DataSource = ds
combobox1.ValueMember = "ID"
combobox1.DisplayMember = "Name"

Try something like this.

It's your connection to the database.
