Hi, I'm creating a form application using vb. I'm still new to this and I'm teaching myself via the internet so please don't be too mean. I wrote my code using queries that I created in visual studio. I don't quite remember how to create an update query and write the code to update different datagrids. I tried searching the forums, and I can't find anything that fits into the way I wrote my code. I have an update button that I want to use to save all the edited data in the form. Here's my code so far:

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Blsys_systemsBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
        Me.Validate()
        Me.Blsys_systemsBindingSource.EndEdit()
        Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.GsaisDataSet)
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        'Removes Empty Row Displayed at bottom of DataGirdView
        Blsys_buildingcomponentsDataGridView.AllowUserToAddRows = False
        Blsys_itcomponentsDataGridView.AllowUserToAddRows = False
        Blsys_attachmentsDataGridView.AllowUserToAddRows = False
    End Sub

    Private Sub SystemComboBox_SelectedIndexChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles SystemComboBox.SelectedIndexChanged
        'Clears location combobox when a new system is selected
        LocationComboBox.Items.Clear()
        LocationComboBox.Text = ""

        Dim System As String = SystemComboBox.Text
        Dim Row As gsaisDataSet.blsys_systemsRow
        Dim Table As gsaisDataSet.blsys_systemsDataTable

        'Selection of system queries system locations
        If System <> "" Then

            Table = Blsys_systemsTableAdapter.GetDataBySysName(System)
            For Each Row In Table
                LocationComboBox.Items.Add(Row.LocationName)
            Next
        End If
    End Sub

    Private Sub DeviceSearchButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles DeviceSearchButton.Click
        showformdata()
    End Sub
    Private Sub showformdata()
        Dim System As String = SystemComboBox.Text
        Dim BuildLoc As String = LocationComboBox.Text

        'Display error message if both comboboxes are empty
        If System = "" And BuildLoc = "" Then
            MessageBox.Show("Please Enter Search Criteria.")

            'Display error message if Location combobox is empty
        ElseIf System <> "" And BuildLoc = "" Then
            MessageBox.Show("Please Enter a System Location.")

            'Display error message if System combobox is empty
        ElseIf System = "" And BuildLoc <> "" Then
            MessageBox.Show("Please Enter a System.")

            'Fills IT Components and Building Components datagrids
        Else

Tell me if you need more information. Thanks!

hello!
it takes long time to read your all code , but as far as concern about update query ,you can do like this

dim mycon as new sqlconnection("connection string")
dim cmd as new sqlcommand
mycon.open()
cmd.connection= mycon
cmd.commandtext="update tablename set dbcolumnname1=@Column1,dbcolumnname1=@Column2,dbcolumnname1=@Column3 where recID=@RecID"
cmd.parameters.addwithvalue("=@Column1",txt1.text)
cmd.parameters.addwithvalue("=@Column2",txt2.text)
cmd.parameters.addwithvalue("=@Column3",txt3.text)
cmd.parameters.addwithvalue("=@recID",txtRecID.text)

cmd.executenonquery()
mycon.close()

Hope this will helps you
Regards
