SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())

Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}, {1}",
reader[0], reader[1]));

}
Public Sub CreateCommand(ByVal queryString As String, _
ByVal connectionString As String)
Using connection As New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Dim command As New SqlCommand()
command.Connection = connection
command.CommandTimeout = 15
