Member Avatar for Bun2014

It doesn't show an increment value in the id and when i choose type from the combo box it show me a message with error.

Member Avatar for Bun2014

This what it shows.

Member Avatar for poojavb

U are not incrementing the value anywhere so it wont show any value....there shud be a database or something that will store the max value and then increment the corresponding value for the combobox item....

Use the edit post link do not post again. And please indent all your code one level by highlight and pushing TAB key to make it formatted as Code or put
~~~ vb
~~~

around the code (line before and line after), ~ must be the first character on line.

I fixed your original post code block.
