    Saving data from text boxes to an SQL server database

    Hi,

    I've been working on a piece of code to get a GUI to input data into then save to an SQL server database but as ever I got stuck. I followed a tutorial for it but now I'm stuck with the wrong type of input (gridview). I tried different ways to get it so I could input into textboxes and save, however there were still always problems.

    I've attached the code for the gridview GUI so you could see where I am with that:

    Code:
    Imports System.Data.SqlClient
    
    
    Public Class Main
        Private connstr As New SqlConnection("ConnectionString")
        Private dadapter As New SqlDataAdapter("Select Name, Age, Address, PkID From tblPatients", connstr)
        Private dset As New DataSet
        Private cmdb As New SqlCommandBuilder(dadapter)
    
        Private Sub Main_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
    
            dadapter.Fill(dset, "tblPatients")
            dgrid.DataSource = dset.Tables("tblPatients")
    
        End Sub
    
        Private Sub btnsave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnsave.Click
    
            dadapter.UpdateCommand = cmdb.GetUpdateCommand
            dadapter.Update(dset.Tables("tblPatients"))
            MsgBox("Record Saved")
    
        End Sub
    
    End Class
    Any help as to how to get it into textboxes then save to the database would be greatly appreciated, and if not then could you point me in the right direction?

    Thank you!

    Follow the CodeBank link in my signature and check out my thread on Retrieving & Saving Data. Amongst others, there's an example of saving one record at a time.
