Database Updating problem

Please help! I have spent all weekend trying to solve this and its driving
me mad!

I have a form with a datagrid on. When I click button btnNew, the new row
appears in the datagrid but it does not update the back end access database.
The program continues to the messagebox to say that it has updated it
though. I've attached the relevant code but the main area is the Private
Sub btnNew_Click at the bottom of the posting

Thanks!

Dave:

Add this line of code in place of the line with the MsgBox:
Dim i as Integer = daUser.Update(dsUser, "dtUser")
MessageBox.Show(i.ToString, "Records Updated")

You aren't actually calling update and that's what needs to send the updates
to the db. I responded in ADO.NET too with a more thorough explanation, but
this alone should fix it barring any other errors like bad connection
strings or field names .

HTH,
