How to retrieve all fields for a given record using OracleDataReader?

Question

My question, which is similar to this one, is how can I use OracleDataReader to retrieve all the fields for a given record? Currently, I've been using this method, which returns only one column value at a time:

public string Select_File(string filename, string subdirectory, string envID)
{
    Data_Access da = new Data_Access();
    OracleConnection conn = da.openDB();

    OracleCommand cmd = new OracleCommand();
    cmd.Connection = conn;
    cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM EIP_Deployment_Files" 
        + " WHERE Filename ='" + filename + "'"
        + " AND Subdirectory = '" + subdirectory + "'"
        + " AND Environment_ID = '" + envID + "'";
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;

    string x;
    OracleDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
    if (dr.HasRows) // file exists in DB
    {
        dr.Read();
        x = dr.GetString(2).ToString(); // return baseline filename (index 2)
    }
    else
    {
        x = "New File";
    }

    cmd.Dispose();
    da.CloseDB(conn);
    return x;
}

I'm sure that this method is far from perfect and ppl will be quick to point that out (I was basically given it by my supervisor since I didn't have any prior experience in ASP.NET) but all I really care about is that it works. My question is: how can it be modified to return all the fields for a given record?

The fields will be of either VARCHAR2, CHAR, or DATE datatypes, (if that makes a difference) and some of these values may be null. I'm thinking I could convert them to strings and return them as a list?

if u want something like this:

List<User> lstUser = new List<User>();
            string sqlQuery = "Select * from User_T where User_Name='" + oUser.UserName + "' And Password='" +oUser.Password + "' AND IsActive='"+1+"' AND IsDelete='"+0+"'";
            string connectionString = "Data Source=ORCL;User Id=ACCOUNTS;Password=ACCOUNTS";
            using (DBManager dbManager = new DBManager(connectionString))
            {
                try
                {

                    dbManager.Open();
                    OracleDataReader dataReader = dbManager.ExecuteDataReader(sqlQuery);
                    while (dataReader.Read())
                    {
                        oUser = new User();
                        oUser.Id = Convert.ToInt32(dataReader["ID"]);
                        oUser.CompanyId = Convert.ToInt32(dataReader["Company_ID"]);
                        oUser.BranchId = Convert.ToInt32(dataReader["Branch_ID"]);
                        oUser.UserName = Convert.ToString(dataReader["User_Name"]);
                        lstUser.Add(oUser);
                    }
                    dataReader.Close();
                    dataReader.Dispose();

                }
                catch
                (Exception)
                {


                }
                finally
                {
                    dbManager.Close();
                    dbManager.Dispose();
                }
