It has nothing to do with ASP.NET. Here is the explanation of what it is:

The question shows that you are quite confused.

If you need to get familiar with the matter, you need to understand ADO.NET. You can start here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ADO.NET[^],
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa286484.aspx[^],
http://csharp.net-informations.com/ado.net/csharp-ado.net-tutorial.htm[^].

This is the overview from QuickStart:
http://quickstarts.asp.net/QuickStartv20/howto/doc/adoplus/overviewcontents.aspx#[^].

This CodeProject article provides a very good introduction for the beginners:
Using ADO.NET for beginners[^].

Good luck,
