Updating database with foreign keys

[SaitStudent]

I am doing a program in school that keeps track on enrollment for a fake school


So far i can add/update/view Students and Instructors

But when i try to add a new course using the same code it doesn't work.

the only difference i can see is that the Course table on the data base as a foreign key from the Instructor table

Would that affect the way i have to code the Add and update functions of my courses class?


this is what i have right now

Public Function Update() As Boolean
        Dim isSuccessful As Boolean
        Dim conn As New SqlConnection(connstring)
        Dim sql As String = "UpdateCourse"
        comm = New SqlCommand(sql, conn)
        comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
        comm.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@COURSECODE", Me.mCourseCode))
        comm.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@COURSENAME", Me.mCourseName))
        comm.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@INSTRUCTORID", Me.mInstructorId))
       
        Try
            conn.Open()
            comm.ExecuteNonQuery()
            isSuccessful = True
        Catch ex As Exception
            isSuccessful = False
        End Try
        Return isSuccessful
    End Function

my storedprocedure is

ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateCourse
 
@COURSECODE varchar(30),
@COURSENAME varchar(30),
@INSTRUCTORID bigint
AS
UPDATE Course       SET CourseName=@COURSENAME, InstructorID=@INSTRUCTORID
                    WHERE CourseCode=@COURSECODE

I am using sqlServer 2005 and visual studio 2005
