DB Connection

[Geo]

Hi guys, I'm a new-B to .Net but I have lots of experience with ASP
vbscript. I would like to find a good book on .NET 2 as my company have
acquired some work in this area. In the mean time can any one tell me or
point me to a good tutorial on how to connect to a SQL database and
executing SQL commands ( not using the drag and drop options in Visual
Studio) ?
Thanks in advance for any help.
