Hello Richard,

Unless I'm missing something else here (or my VB.NET syntax is rustier than I remember <g>), I think you want to change your UPDATE statement to:

oledbDA.UpdateCommand.CommandText = _
"UPDATE Contacts SET Company = '" & _
MyCompany & "' WHERE Unique_ID = " & _
MyContacts_Unique_ID.ToString()

Hope that makes sense,
