Procedures are what you're looking for:

OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(connectionString);
conn.Open();

DataTable queries = conn.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDbSchemaGuid.Procedures, null);

conn.Close();

This will give you a DataTable with the following columns in it (among others):

PROCEDURE_NAME: Name of the query

PROCEDURE_DEFINITION: SQL definition

So you can loop through the table like so:

foreach(DataRow row in queries.Rows)
{
    // Do what you want with the values here
    queryName = row["PROCEDURE_NAME"].ToString();
    sql = row["PROCEDURE_DEFINITION"].ToString();
}
