What syntax do I use to pass a parameter to a stored procedure from vb.net

Thank you in advance,

Max

You must use the parameters collection of the command object.
Depending on which data provider you are using (Sql, Ole, Oracle, etc) the names are a bit different, but basically:

Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand
cmd.Connection = conn ' Assumes you have an open connection named conn
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.CommandText = "STORED_PROC_NAME_HERE"
cmd.Parameters.Add("ParamName", strValue)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() ' You can also ExecuteReader or ExecuteScalar

These are the basics and should get you started.
