databases

I am very new to asp.net, but am having trouble trying to link the asp.net page that i have created to an sql database that has been set up on a local system. Am actually trying to use the sql control to extract info from the database. Would appreciate any ideas.For Binding SQL Data to a DataGrid (or another control) try this link.
I am also new and have been studying asp.net since about last Feb. For information the internet can't be beat, but for structure and clarity, a good book works for me. Linking your controls to sql database is discussed in detail, step by step, in "Sam's Teach Yourself ASP.net in 24 hrs." I learned a lot and still grab it for reference.
