                SqlCommand comando = new SqlCommand(consulta, this.conectar());
                comando.Connection.Open();
                comando.ExecuteNonQuery();
                comando.Connection.Close();
                return true;

                return false;
            }
        }

        public DataTable regresarTabla(string consulta)
        {
            try
            {
                SqlDataAdapter adapter = new SqlDataAdapter(consulta, this.conectar());
                DataTable tabla = new DataTable("consulta");
                adapter.Fill(tabla);
                return tabla;
            }
            catch
            {
                MessageBox.Show("Consulta mal formada ");
                return new DataTable();
            }
        }
    }
}

I repeat now is with access and it is for intranet (in another computer is the server)

ConnectionStrings.com is a great resource for figuring out how to create a connection string for a variety of database engines. Here’s one example of an Access connection string:

Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\mydatabase.mdb;User Id=admin;Password=;

Once you generate a connection string, you’ll notice that the file path is included in the string; to share the database among mulitple clients, you’ll need to put the database file on a network share or drive. For example, your file path could be something like “\\dbserver\databases\mydb.mdb.”
