[2005] Data Problem

Hi All,

This is the code i am using to load data from an access database and the code used to update the database:

vb Code:

Public custDA As OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Public CustDS As New DataSet
 
    Private Sub frmCustomersContainer_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
 
        custDA = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM Customers ORDER By Customers.customer ASC", con)
        custDA.Fill(CustDS)
 
        Dim custTbl As DataTable = CustDS.Tables(0)
 
        Me.dgvCustomers.DataSource = custTbl
        Me.dgvCustomers.Columns(0).Visible = False
        Me.dgvCustomers.Columns(1).Width = Me.dgvCustomers.Width - 15
 
    End Sub

vb Code:

Private Sub frmCustDetailsDetails_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
 
        Dim tbl As DataTable = frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.Tables(0)
 
        txtAddress.DataBindings.Add("Text", tbl, "Address")
        txtPostcode.DataBindings.Add("Text", tbl, "PostCode")
 
End Sub
 
Private Sub frmCustDetailsDetails_Leave(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Leave
 
        If frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.HasChanges Then
            frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.AcceptChanges()
            frmCustomersContainer.custDA.Update(frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.Tables(0))
        End If
 
End Sub

When i change either txtaddress or txtpostcode the dataset is updated but not the database.

What am i missing?

TIA

Rico

Get rid of this:

vb.net Code:

frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.AcceptChanges()

Thanks JMcilhinney,

but that gives an exception: "Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows." on the line:

vb Code:

frmCustomersContainer.custDA.Update(frmCustomersContainer.CustDS.Tables(0))

It's not the fact that that line was removed that is causing the exception. That line was setting all the data in the DataSet to Unchanged so there was nothing to save. Now that there is something to save you're seeing a completely separate issue.

See the fourth example here.

Excellent, thanks for all the info!
