I would like to know how could i connect my Visual Basic program to a database that can be opened to MS Access. My friend made a program that links to a database that opens in MS Access and when you open the database the inputted data are organized to their respective columns and rows. However he used VB6 in making the program and he wont let me see the syntax. And another thing, the program that he made updates the database everytime a new set of data is inputted.
I have decided to make a little "safebox", to store some important information. For some reason I have decided to use a database (even though I have never used it!), so I would like if someone could help me connect to the database.I'm not asking for the code (I won't complain if you post it ),

Im new to VB.net. Currently im using visual studio 2008 to make a member registration form and i need to save all data into my access database 2007.

I'm still passed from VB6 to VB2008 and...I found it very changed!I've learned in few days how to use the most used commands, but I've got a big problem in connecting to an Access Database.I saw that we can connect to a database using:
- wizard connection - manual connection
I think that using the Wizard everything is more cleaned and I can reuse the code in a simple way.So I tried the Wizard Connection, but all the guide and tutorial explain the connections using DataGrid. I don't want to show DataGrid. I've learned how to import data in listboxes (also in auto-complete mode) but I cannot understand how to work on data in the way I prefer.
- I've got a combobox with a list of data
- When I "change" the selection (combobox_SelectedIndexChanged) you have to load related data (from another table) in a ListBox (in which I can add other items without inserting them in the DB)
- Send all the data loaded in this fields (there are also other data) to create a record in the DB (like "Order of Product")

I have been using VB6 for many years and have recenty decided to migrate to .net 2008 im slowly getting the hang of it but the problem i face now is the connection string to an access database, below is the code i used in VB6 is there a way to convert it for .net.[code...]
I'm using the "Add New Data Source" wizard in Visual Studio 2008 to connect to an Access database ".accdb" but I keep getting an error message when I try to finish the wizard.... "Custom Tool Error: Failed to generate code. 0 is not a valid value for Int32. Input string was not in correct format." this is my first time working with VB in conjunction with MS Access.
I have this subroutine setup to connect to a MS Access database:
Public Sub MakeDBConnection(ByVal source As String) Try cn = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" & source & ";")
[Code]....
It is in a module, and any function that uses it in the module it works with, however, when I try and use it from Main.vb (my main form) it doesn't seem to do anything, as any tries with executing SQL queries come back with an error saying I must initialize the connection.
I have tried setting all variables it uses to Public, but it doesn't work. Maybe I need to return something? I don't know.
