Imports System.Data.OleDb
Public Class Form1
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim connetionString As String
        Dim connection As OleDbConnection
        Dim oledbAdapter As OleDbDataAdapter
        Dim ds As New DataSet
        Dim sql As String

        connetionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=Your mdb filename;"
        sql = "Your SQL Statement Here"

        connection = New OleDbConnection(connetionString)
        Try
            connection.Open()
            oledbAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter(sql, connection)
            oledbAdapter.Fill(ds, "OLEDB Temp Table")
            oledbAdapter.Dispose()
            connection.Close()

            MsgBox("number of Row(s)   -   " & ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count)

        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Can not open connection ! ")
        End Try
    End Sub
End Class

connetionString = "Data Source=ServerName;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;User ID=UserName;Password=Password"
sql = "Your SQL Statement Here"

You have to replace the string with your real time variables.
