>>I have a VB 2008 data entry form that uses ADO.NET to link to a SQL Server 2008 Developer's Edition Database. Everything is working fine, but when I add a new record, I would like to programmatically set some fields to certain values. I know where to put the code, but have no idea what line of code lets me change the value of a field. In Visual Foxpro, of course I would type REPLACE fieldname WITH value. How the heck do I do this in VB?

Thanks for the reply! I think it comes down to everything looking totally foreign and not understanding how things work. After studying some code and doing some more reading and testing, I got it to work!
