Missing semocolon at the end of the statement

DbCon.Execute "update tbl1 set fname = '" & FnameTxt & "', lname = '" & LnameTxt & "', dateofbirth = '" & DateofbirthTxt & "', where id = '" & IdTxt & "'"

should be like this...

DbCon.Execute "update tbl1 set fname = '" & FnameTxt & "', lname = '" & LnameTxt & "', dateofbirth = '" & DateofbirthTxt & "', where id = '" & IdTxt & "';"

Standard SQL (you can include theJet Update statement, too) doesn't use paren's after the set command. Have you tried:

DbCon.Execute "update tbl1 set fname = '" & FnameTxt & "', lname = '" & LnameTxt & "', dateofbirth = '" & DateofbirthTxt & "', where id = '" & IdTxt & "'"

It have extra comma before the WHERE Clause,

DbCon.Execute "update tbl1 set fname = '" & FnameTxt & "', lname = '" & LnameTxt & "', dateofbirth = '" & DateofbirthTxt & "', where id = '" & IdTxt & "';"

should be like this...

DbCon.Execute "UPDATE tbl1 SET fname = '" & FnameTxt & "', lname = '" & LnameTxt & "', dateofbirth = '" & DateofbirthTxt & "' WHERE id = '" & IdTxt & "';"
