Hi
Thanks for your inquiry. Most probably the error occurs because you don’t have implementation of ExecuteDataTable method in your project.
To perform selection from data base you should specify connection string, create connection, open connection, execute selection and close connection. For example see the following code:

'Here should be a connection string to your DB
'Create connction 
Dim connectionString As String = "server=Web1;database=TestDB;uid=sa;pwd=yourpassword;"
Dim conn As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString)
'Create DataSet
Dim ds As DataSet = New DataSet()
'Create sql command
Dim commandString As String = "SELECT * FROM Clients"
Dim command As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand(commandString, conn)
'Create data adapter
Dim adapter As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(command)
'Open connection
conn.Open()
'Read dataset
adapter.Fill(ds)
conn.Close()
'Check if DataSet contains table
If (ds.Tables.Count > 0) Then
'Open template document
Dim doc As Document = New Document("in.doc")
'Execute mail merge
doc.MailMerge.Execute(ds.Tables(0))
'Save document
doc.Save("out.doc")
End If

I hope this could help you.
Best regards.
