how can i convert a datareader into an arraylist in vb.net?

thanks

I don't think there is a way to directly convert it because they are completely different data types.

In short, you need to iterate over the data reader rows and create items to add to the ArrayList.

could you please write the code for that?

Many thanks

My consulting rate is 75USD/hour.

But I'm feeling generous so here's a start:

- You need a loop
- In the loop, create a new instance of your object
- Assign the data reader column values to your object
- Add the object to the array list

Some advise: Show us a little effort, blatantly asking us to do your work won't get you much. But I'll give you a few points for at least saying "please".
