This is what you need to do.

Table 1 : A with primary key id
Table 2 : B with foreign key id
Table 3: C with foreign key id.

here is the sql statement

Select * from A 
    join B on B.id = A.id 
    join C on C.id = A.id
where A.id = 1234

now using the above format you can retrieve the data from the database and then fill the dataset and then bind it to gridview

Also i would recommend to replace * with the actual field names.

I haven't had to query a database in a long time but you could build your SQL query as such

SELECT table1.col1, table1.col2, table2.col1, table2.col2 
FROM table1, table2 
WHERE table1.somecol = 'xyz' AND table2.somecol = 'xyz'

So you would have something like:

SELECT statistik.date, statistik.client, address.city, statistik.container, statistik.charges
FROM statistik, address
WHERE statistik.password = 'thePassword' AND address.password = 'thePassword'

Semomaniz's answer is probably the better solution ;)
Like I said it's been a long time since I've queried a database and I'm pretty rusty.
