Bad encounters of the jet4 kind

If I understand you correctly, you are struggling to insert a new record into your database from your vb.net application.

If this is the case, I can say that I have also encountered this problem. I dont know why one can't change an oledbdata-adapter's querys's commandtexts (straightforwardly , anyway)...

The way I got past this problem is as follows...
1. I created the connection (eg. con1) as I normally do.
2. Create a String (eg. bstring) object, that contains a normal "INSERT"-sql statement. Use controls such as textboxes to build the string.
3. Create a OleDB-command object as follows (the following is pseudo-code) :

dim com1 as new OleDB.OleDBCommand(con1,bstring)

4. Execute the Insert-statement as follows (pseudo-code again) :

com1.ExecuteNonQuery()

5. Remember to close your connection when you have finished.

Hope this route works. It's the most direct I know of of solving this problem.
