I'm Pretty New To Vb And We Got A Project At School, Our Teacher Isn't Very Helpful *Gives Long Lectures And Barely Lets Us Try Out The Stuff He Tells Us, Until Its Worth A Lot Of Our Mark..* Anyhow.

I'm Getting This Stupid Error - Invalid Field Data Type.

I'm Not Sure Whats Going On. Lol.


Any Help Would Be Awesome, Thanks.

Heh, you should be lucky you get to do a database project. Much better than what we had to do... in one section we learned how to use the Shape control. Rolling Eyes Anyway, I'm going to take a wild guess at this one... you probably tried to use a data type not allowed in a field.

So... are you using the Data control, or something else? Any extra details would be helpful.

it would be nice to know what database engine you're using and how you're connecting to it.

In Visual Basic, it's really easy to connect to Microsoft Access using DAO

Lol, I'm An Idiot. Very Happy

I Started Doing Other Stuff, And Just Realized What My Problem Was.

My Images Had The DataFeild = To The Data Feild I Wanted, But I Had A Code For That In My Program, So I Needed To Change The Data Feild In The Properties Of The Images To Nothing.

*Sigh* I Love Being Smart *Sarcasm Kills*

Thanks Anyways, It Wasn't A Very Well Explained Question Either Razz
