VB.Net Help
Just having a play on writing stuff to a database like usernames and passwords etc but for some reason it wont save the info to a database!
My button info is:
Private Sub Button2_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
'Add Button
If TextBox1.Text = "" OrElse TextBox2.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("Please enter the complete name!", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation + MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Error")
Exit Sub
End If
con.Open()
Dim rs As New OleDb.OleDbCommand(
"INSERT INTO Users ([Username], [Password]) VALUES ('" &
StrConv(TextBox1.Text, VbStrConv.Uppercase) & "','" &
StrConv(TextBox2.Text, VbStrConv.Uppercase) & "','" &
StrConv(TextBox3.Text, VbStrConv.Uppercase) & "','" &
ComboBox1.Text & "'," &
Val(TextBox4.Text) & ")", con)
rs.ExecuteNonQuery()
con.Close()
LoadGrid("")
ClearText()
End Sub
But i get an "Insert into" error.
Ive put the username in square brackets because a read that the username is possibly a reserved field.
Any ideas on why it wont save to the database?

Your basic problem is that you are specifying two fields, but trying to insert 3 values:
INSERT INTO (X, Y) VALUES (X, Y, Z)
I wouldn't recommend using this code on any public-facing website you cared about however, because you leave yourself wide open to an SQL injection attack by black-hat haxxors. Essentially you need to filter user input to ensure that they don't send naughty stuff, or use Parametrised SQL statements, or both.
Obviously if this is just for the purposes of teaching yourself you might not be too worried about that, but it's something to be aware of.

Thanks Andy. Ive manage to get it working by using parametrised code, I will post it later to show everyone.
Ive made a little form to select the database location but my database has a password and i need a way of saving this password but encrypted.
It doesnt matter too much as this is only a small program to be used internally by 2 people, But i want to do it properly.
Also noticed how my connection string password is not encrypted!
