窗口程序访问mysql,如何连接数据库和Windows窗体应用程序

Hi All

Im a junior programmer and I have not touched code in about 2 years, and now ive been asked to create a simple app for a client to allow them to retrieve data from a database and display it in a windows form, I cant believe I forgot how to do this even but im stuck.

I got a database on phpmyadmin called "clients" with a table in it called "astel".

Ive got my windows form app, but im stuck on the connection string, how can i get the app to retrieve the data from my database and table and display it in the app, if anyone has a tutorial on working with windows apps and databases preferably in phpmyadmin that would help alot

any help is appreciated

thanks.
