Thanks Cathi! That worked.
Seems redundant that you need a "reader.read()" statement thats preceeded by an "ExecuteReader()" statement...

>You need to call the Read method of the DataReader before accessing the data. The Read method actually goes out and fetches the record. Change your code to the following:
Dim reader As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataReader
reader = OleDbCommand1.ExecuteReader()
reader.Read()
TextBox4.Text() = reader.Item("hdesc")
