hi guys, im not sure how to explain my problem and what are the ways to solve it but i will try my best to explain what i'm trying to do here

- in my database, there's 2 table....Log, Application





- im trying to construct a sentence for my log, something like..

(eg: Apply Annual Leave from Monday to Friday)

-words in bold are to be retrieved from the Application table (database)



here's my vb code (im not sure whether i should be using array or not...and im not so sure how to use it too )

Private Sub btnCancel_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnCancel.Click


con.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; data source= H:\Project\user.mdb"
con.Open()
sql = "SELECT * From Log"
da = New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(sql, con)
da.Fill(ds, "LogList")
con.Close()
maxrows = ds.Tables("LogList").Rows.Count

Dim sqlstr1 As String
Dim sqlstr2 As String
Dim sqlstr3 As String

sqlstr1 = "select Type from Application where ID ='" & txtcancel.Text & "'"
sqlstr2 = "select Dayfrom from Application where ID ='" & txtcancel.Text & "'"
sqlstr3 = "select Dayto from Application where ID ='" & txtcancel.Text & "'"


Try
If inc <> -1 Then
Dim cb As New OleDb.OleDbCommandBuilder(da)
Dim dsNewRow As DataRow
dsNewRow = ds.Tables("LogList").NewRow()


dsNewRow.Item("Sentence") = "Apply " & sqlstr1 & "from" & sqlstr2 & "to" & sqlstr3


ds.Tables("LogList").Rows.Add(dsNewRow)
da.Update(ds, "LogList")
MessageBox.Show("Data insert into log", "Confirm")


End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("Error in one of the fields", "Error")

End Try

End Sub

but when i view my Log..something like this appear



-how do i let the array know that the statement is an sql statement, not text??

-or is there any other way to do it??

-can someone provide me a sample code or something??

thanks

Looks like you're not even selecting the data from the code you've provided. So it's just printing out the string you assigned it.

so any idea how to solve it ?

Do the same thing you did with the "SELECT * FROM Log" but with those three querys.
