asp to asp.net

With ols asp i would simply use the following code and insert the bindong from
dreamweaver

Dim strOne
strOne = (rs_news.Fields.Item("date").Value)

with asp.net this does not work ...
Dim strOne As String
strOne = (rs_fixres.FieldValue("played", container))

Can anyone show me how to make the example work in asp.net using VB???

Thanks in advance
Barry
