Pls pls people help me i would really appreciate this :)

Your error means that there is no column Customer_ID in the dataset. Verify that Registration has a column named like that or verify that this is the exact name of the column you want to bind to that field.

adam_k thanx for ur help but now i am seriously having trouble with something else please help here is full my code

    Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand
    Dim adp As OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
    Dim ds As New DataSet
    Dim bs As BindingSource


    Private Sub btnCancel_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCancel.Click
        frmMainMenu.Show()
        Me.Hide()
    End Sub

    Private Sub btnAccept_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnAccept.Click


        'Sql statement. This will insert record into Registration table
        Dim sqlQRY As String = "INSERT INTO Registration (Customer_ID, First_Name, Last_Name, Date_of_Birth, Gender, Phone_Number, Email, Address) VALUES ('& txtCustomerID.Text &',' & txtFirstName.Text & ',' & txtLastName.Text & ',' & txtDateOfBirth.Text & ',' & txtGender.Text & ','& txtPhoneNumber.Text & ', ' & txtEmail.Text & ', ' & txtAddress.Text & ')"

        cn.Close()
    End Sub
End Class

basically what i am planning to do is this is the place where i can register customers, but when i key in all of them i get a system error

Where exactly do you get this error? On which line of code?

after i key in all the info in registration like customer id and stuff after i press accept which basically has to save it to database it fails

I guess your problem in in inserting new custome into database.
Your sql query is not ok, chnage it to:

"INSERT INTO Registration (Customer_ID, First_Name, Last_Name, Date_of_Birth, Gender, Phone_Number, Email, Address) VALUES ('"& txtCustomerID.Text &"','" & txtFirstName.Text & "','" & txtLastName.Text & "','" & txtDateOfBirth.Text & "','" & txtGender.Text & "','" & txtPhoneNumber.Text & "', '" & txtEmail.Text & "', '" & txtAddress.Text & "')"

As you can see you have forgot to add double quotes when you define the parameters directly into query statement.

omg thanks a lot :)

now i am facing another problem.... if i wanna attach pic is it possible? what i mean i register user can i attach his photo? if yes how i seriously dont know how
