Default Chapter 17 -Connecting to Northwind

Hello There,

I followed all the steps necessary to create the CustomerQuery and then utilize the VB connection wizard to link the Northwind sample to my form's DataGridView.

The columns show up but none of the data is populated when I run the debugger.

I'm sure it's something easy to fix that I must be overlooking.

I'm using VB2008 Express and Access 2007.

The data definitely shows up in my Access query, but like I said, not in VB...

Please help...

Thanks

What is the S.Q.L. you've embedded in your code, if it is a 'SELECT' command with a LIKE clause, in Access 2000, an asterisk works as a 'wild-card', but not in the V.B. 2008 program code. It expects a '%' symbol in place of the asterisk ! it took me a while to work that one out ......
