Yes, this will involve Database Connectivity toolkit, and optionally the report generation.  What part of this are you having problems with.?

thank you for noticing, appreciated. I just want to have a button in my labview program that when I click it, it will generate report and ready for printing, but I don't have any idea how to do it lol. I don't have the code.

If you open the LabVIEW Example Finder (Under the "Help" menu option) there's a couple examples that may be useful references to you.

"Read All Data.vi" does what the name implies, it queries all information from a database and displays it in a table.

As for the report itself, there's so many ways to write a report about a database, there's no real catch-all solution. Barring a more specific idea of what you want to report, I can only direct you towards the Report Generation folder in LabVIEW Example Finder (Example Finder -> Browse -> Directory Structure -> Report Generation). The examples in this folder require the Report Generation Toolkit, as they create reports in MS office.
