You can't mouse over a DataReader: it isn't a visible control.
You would be better off binding the database output into a DataGridView or similar and working from there...

Good point, a 5.
I always though invisible control is a completely stupid invention: it is designed to please lamers by making them feel that they use "graphical programming" instead of "coding" which makes it "easier". In real life there no saved time, just the opposite, don't you think so?

Graphical design can be good when something graphical is designed, like alignment, and even this is not always so.

Anser 1 is right, data reader is not a visible control

You can use DataSet, fil it with required data

and then Bound the DataSet to DataGridView

e.g

C#

DataGridView.Source = DataSet.Tables[0];

Hope it Works for U

Did you mean GridView? Then, this[^] might help.
