chnage your query
(" select customername from customers where customername LIKE % (' "+ textbox1.text+" ')"

to
(" select customername from customers where (customername LIKE ' %  "+ textbox1.text+" ') "

Make sure that the customername you are entering in textbox is present in the db.
select customername from customers where (customername LIKE ' %  "+ textbox1.text+" '

for ex: you have gopi in your db. The above statement is true when textbox value is gopi
select customername from customers where (customername LIKE ' %  "+ textbox1.text+" %' 

when text box matches any character of gopi it is true.

You place a breakpoint and check what value is entererd in the textbox1. If the textbox1 value matches the value in DB then surely the query will execute.

Thanks and Regards,
