listbox or datagridview

Hi,

i'm doing a desktop application using VS2005 with MSSQL 2005.

i have a problem with the where clause in the update statement while selecting the listbox item.


this is the code for the listbox in load page:

Code:

---

Dim cmdView As New SqlCommand("select * from Appointment where contactID = '" & cID & "' and recordStatus = 'active'", conn)
            lbApp.Items.Clear()

            Dim dr As SqlDataReader
            dr = cmdView.ExecuteReader()

            While dr.Read

                Dim a As String
                Dim b As String
                Dim c As String
                Dim d As String
                Dim f As String
                Dim g As String

                a = dr("time")
                b = dr("actStatus")
                c = dr("meetingPlace")
                d = dr("note")
                f = "    "
                g = a + f + b + f + c + f + d

                lbApp.Items.Add(g)

            End While

            dr.Close()
            conn.Close()

---

and this is my update query in the delete button event handler:

Code:

---

mySQL = "update Appointment set recordStatus = 'deleted'"

---

how do i put in the where clause in when i have 4 columns in the listbox?
so can i do this with listbox or have to do with datagridview?

I'd appreciate any input, thanks!

Use a DGV. The ListBox was never intended to display tabular data.
