Who told you that you need a string array?

some one suggested me to do like that.

Looks like that "someone" has never heard of DataSet or List or any other advanced collections .NET has to offer. Unless, you intend to call this code via a service call for an AutoCompleteExtender control but even then the signature would be wrong.

You have written half the code. You should buy a book and read it, not take random suggestions from people. cmd.ExecuteQuery will return a dataset, which is a perfectly valid data source for a data driven control. If you need a string array, you need to pull the data you want out of the data set, but you should still have known how to run this SQL from the many, many articles that exist on this site and online.
