you create a string like the following

dim <code>createstring as string
 createstring="USE [DatabaseName]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[viewName]
AS
********Put your sql select statement here********
GO"


dim sqlcmd as sqlcommand</code>


        sqlcmd=new sqlcommand(createstring,youropenconnection)
        sqlcmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
        sqlcmd.ExecuteNonQuery()

This should do the job I think
