You should probably use their HFSQL ODBC Driver. http://www.windev.com/ts/download/

Hi Sourav, sometime a good answer is a simple one. Using ODBC is going to make his task real easy, he just didn't know they had an ODBC driver. – Intorsion

My pleasure Haider, we tested it successfully from within Excel here so it should work like a charm within C#. It uses the old ODBC specs so work fine with Microsoft products but we tried from python and it crashed, I think it's because the python libraries (pyodbc) are tied with the newer ODBC protocols. – Intorsion

ODBC is free or i need to pay? I know windev have fees. – Didymous
