Create Database report with VB

I need to create an application that can create a report from a view in a sql database.  I need to be able to pass it a search filter or sql query and then print it to the screen.  I've found examples of how to parse a dataset and print it out, but I need to be able to filter the data that comes out or perhaps create a dataset based on the filtered data that I can then spout out with a nested for loop for each column or row.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Why did you change the BR?  My BBCode decompiler choked on it, damn it!

*** Exception: (line 4, column 5):
unexpected "/"
expecting "<br clear=all>", "<br/>\n" or "</br>"
