Yes it does, but you will need to use OleDb classes inside of System.Data.OleDb namespace for data retrieval, and use Query instead of View.
Check out this link for connecting with Ms Access.

Hi Tajuddin,
What Database System do you use?, the query I have provided should work fine.
If you are using SQL server right click on the Northwind Database then "New Query" then paste the code I have provided and click on the "Execute" Button in the toolbar.

thanks

Thank you Wayne, I am glad that you liked the article.
For paging you will need to use DataSet classes since DataReader doesnt not support paging and filtering.
I have updated the sample in which paging is enabled you can download the new sample from the link bellow:

Nice article - helped me get my head around a few things.

Any chance you could add some code to allow paging - tried the simple AllowPaging="True" but obviously this didn't work. Been looking for a way to do this but as a newbie am getting stuck!

This method is useful for small apps i think but for large web portals you must use Sql Server 2005 fulltextsearch .
Maybe it would be interesting to build implementation
fulltextsearch using Linq.
There isnt any article on using linq for fulltextsearch,and you cant use linq for fulltextsearch I think.
Maybe would be great to build some helper classes to do that.
