How to display database records in asp.net mvc view

Question

Using ASP.NET MVC with C#, how do you pass some database records to a View and display them in table form?

I need to know how I can transfer/pass some rows of record

Answer 1

If you dont have to use an sql reader would it not be easier to have the Controller like this.

Controller.cs

private ConnectContext db = new ConnectContext();

public ActionResult Index()
   {
     return View(db.Tv.ToList());
   }

ConnectContext.cs

public class ConnectContext : DbContext
{
    public DbSet Student{ get; set; }
}

This way your connection string will be in your web.config and the View + Model will remain the same.
