[2005] Display record from Table

[Simply Me]

Hello! I wonder what's the equivalent value of this vb6 code in vb.net. I would like to display specific valueto textbox from table.

    rsStocks.Open "SELECT * FROM tblStocks WHERE Code = '" & txtCode.Text & "'", oConn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic
    If rsStocks.RecordCount <> 0 Then
      txtSupply.Text = rsStocks.Fields("Quantity")
      txtDesc.Text = rsStocks.Fields("ProductDescription")
      'txtSellingPrice.Text = Format$(rsStocks.Fields("SellingPrice"), "P###,###,##0.00")    End If

You can still use the Format function in VB.NET but you shouldn't. You should use the String.Format method, which I just demonstrated in one of your other threads. That said, Format, String.Format, StringBuilder.AppendFormat and every other method that accepts format strings accepts exactly the same format strings. MSDN has all the details on standard and custom format strings for numerical values as well as dates and times.

i think i was not clear enough when I said I want to display specific value in my first post and for that Im sorry.

What I should have said should be how do i achieved this kind of coding in .net

txtSupply.Text = rsStocks.Fields("Quantity")

Here i am assigning whatever record the field Quantity to txtSupply.
