Do you have any knowledge of SQL or are you looking for complete code?

How can i compare textbox fields with SQL database values on my login button?
Steps:
1. On login button press, raise the click event. Write your comparison code here in this click handler.
2. Now, using ADO.NET, connect to database. Form a query for comparison of the value in DB
3. Run the query and get back the result
4. Take action based on the result returned.

Few references that would help:

        Dim dalogin As New SqlDataAdapter
        Dim dslogin As New Data.DataSet
        dalogin.SelectCommand = cmdlogin
        cmdlogin.ExecuteNonQuery()
        dslogin.Clear()
        dalogin.Fill(dslogin, "users")


        If dslogin.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then

        Else
            
        End If

        if txtusername.text=dslogin.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item(0).ToString then

Please don't do this yourself, use ASP.NET Authentication[^].

Security is a thorny issue which requires an in depth understanding of a wide range of technologies. ASP.Net provides authentication and authorization out of the box, so there is no need to implement this yourself.
