JDBC Help!!!

[Lord Byron Canica]

I am new to java and I am trying to create a connection between a class and a MS Access Database file(*.mdb). I am using Netbeans IDE. I have a list of questions that I really need answered.
1. How do I connect to the the Database through Java?
2. How do I create, add, Delete, modify tables?
3. How do I print the contents of a table out into a JTextArea in another class?
ANY STRONG BEGINNER TUTORIALS FOR THIS TOPIC WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED

The JDBC forum is the best place to ask those first two questions. The third question you'll likely want to be asking over in the Swing / JFC / AWT forum.
I'm moving this thread to the JDBC forum...

It looks like you need the JDBC tutorial and Swing tutorial from the Java website.

Good luck.

"Lord Byron",
We're really glad that you are here with us in the JDBC forum, and there aren't many rules you'll have to worry about, but one is that proper names are required. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and change your display name to match it.
In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.
Thanks!
