I am new to VB.2005 and to make it worse, I'm switching over from VB 6.0. I
have figured out how to programmaticall y Create a Database and Table and how
to add data to an Access database (Two weeks work). I'm having trouble
trying to figure out how to Update and Delete a record (Row) from an
existing database. I'm finished with trying to find help using Google.
Everyone wants me to join their group so I can get the answer and when I do,
all they do is ask me more questions or refer me to a link that sends me to
another group that wants me to join their group. The record has three simple
fields. Nothing complicated. Is there a big secret that VB.NET programmers
are keeping to themselves? When I try to update, everything seems to work
but it doesn't make the changes in the database. Can someone
help......Pleas e?

Already had a look in the documentation and the contained examples?
Short story: You need a connection to the database and an SQL to update
the data. Translated:
Dim con As New OleDbConnection ("<connectionst ring>")
Dim cmd As New OleDbCommand("u pdate table set f1=? where id=?",
con)
con.Open()
With cmd.Parameters
.AddWithValue(" f1", "new content")
.AddWithValue(" id", 17)
End With
cmd.ExecuteNonQ uery()
Where do you have the data in memory? Dataset/Datatable? Then read the
chapters covering the usage of Datasets. One starting point: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...ez(VS.80).aspx

MooVBuff,
The fact that you are using Access, along with your remark that the update
seems to work but the changes don't appear in the database leads me to wonder
if you are actually updating a copy of the database: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms246989.aspx

Not nearly enough information to provide any help on. "When I try to update.." -
what are you trying?
DUHHHH. This exactly what I'm talking about. Everyone has a comment but
no-one seems to know how to do it. Thanks to Armin Zingler for pointing me
to material that really helped.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
