                Console.WriteLine("ProviderSubType ={0}, ProviderType = {1}", dbi.ProviderSubType, dbi.ProviderType);  
                Console.WriteLine("SupportsNullColumns = {0}, UseFullTableName = {1}", dbi.SupportsNullColumns, dbi.UseFullTableName);  
            }  
        }  
    }  
}  

Namespace dbproviderinfo  
    Class Program  
        Shared  Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)
