The Code as below :


Dim con2 As New OleDb.OleDbConnection
Dim dbProvider2 As String
Dim dbSource2 As String
Dim ds2 As New DataSet
Dim da2 As OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Dim sql2 As String

Private Sub enamecombo_SelectedIndexChanged(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles enamecombo.SelectedIndexChanged


dbProvider2 = "PROVIDER=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;"
dbSource2 = "Data Source = |DataDirectory|\empdb.accdb"


con2.ConnectionString = dbProvider2 & dbSource2


Try
eictextbox.Clear()


con2.Open()
sql2 = "Select eic from tblemp where ename = '" & enamecombo.Text & "' "
da2 = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql2, con2)
da2.Fill(ds2, "tblemp")


Dim command2 As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand(sql2, con2)
Dim reader2 As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataReader = command2.ExecuteReader()


While reader2.Read()
eictextbox.Text = reader2.GetString("eic") <----- the eic at the database is as text
End While


reader2.Close()
con2.Close()
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString)
End Try


End Sub
 
You can't just make up any method you want and call it. That method has to actually exist. Have you read the documentation for the OleDbDataReader.GetString method? The Help menu is there on your VS menu for a reason. If you need help, use the Help menu first. If you had done that then you'd already know what the issue is. If you can't find what you need in the MSDN documentation then by all means post here or on other forums but always use the Help menu first.
