Solution 2

You need to try something like this:

C#

using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(@"Data Source=yourServerName\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=True;"))
           {
               SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("CREATE DATABASE MyDataBase",con);
               con.Open();
               cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
           }

Hope this helps

Yes.

Any particular type of database? MsSQL, MySQL, SQLCE, SqlLite, Oracle,...
Anything you want to put in it, in particular?
Anything you want to do with it when you retrieve it?

Have you tried reading your lecture notes?
Have you considered Google?

Have you actually done anything at all yourself?
