I'm writing a VB application that has to talk to a database on a website. The method I've come up with is this:
Client program submits an SQL statement to a webpage through a querystring (IE: http://test.com/default.asp?SQL=SELECT * FROM BOOKS)
The page would then run the query string, and then return a recordset (if it was a SELECT statement).

Two questions:
1)Is there a better way?
2)How do I keep the page from caching?
