Why would that write anything to your database? If you want to insert anything into your database, you use "Insert Into...". I think you need to learn some SQL.

thank you ... now i know that i really dont know sql...

instead of:
string sssql = "SELECT *FROM
use:
string sssql = "SELECT * FROM
there must be a space after the (*) sign

mmaenb, you are wrong sir. I have just tested in SQL Server Management Studio and you can do Select *From TableName and it runs fine. It is proper to have a space after for readability, however it is not mandatory.

First all add space after *.If it does not work then check your table is there are entries or not.

You need to use UPDATE statement to update rows.

sql="update BooksCatalog set BorrorState='good' WHERE BookID = '" + TB[2].Text + "'";
