MsgBox("Update successful")

the Error i receive is a system.invalidoperationexection... reads " Update requires a valid UpdateCommand

7/3/2016 [RESOLVED] Tableadapter Update Command only works once!?@-VBForums

the help describes the error with the following, however i feel as though i am simply updating the modified
rows to the database after calling the end edit for the binding source. The update command works the
first time, but fails the second time.

"TableAdapters require valid UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE commands to perform a successful save
operation.
TableAdapters generate INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements based on the original SELECT
statement entered into the wizard. In some situations, the SELECT statement does not provide enough
information for the adapter to generate the commands necessary to create the INSERT, UPDATE, and
DELETE commands required for a successful save. This often occurs when the database table does not
have a primary key column, or the SELECT command uses JOINS. For more information, see How to: Edit
TableAdapters."

thanks!

This is why you need to provide the error message to us that the IDE provides to you. They are a
diagnostic tool and if you want us to diagnose the issue then we need that information. In this case it's
all we need:

Your TableAdapter has no UpdateCommand, which suggests that the Data Source Wizard was unable to
generate one. That would happen because either the query contains a JOIN of two or more tables or else
the query doesn't return a primary key.

Does this TableAdapter correspond directly to a table in the database? Does that table have a primary
key? If not then how is the system to uniquely identify the records in order to know which one to
update? The same goes for deleting.

If you do need to update the database using such a TableAdapter that was generated from either a join,
a table with no primary key or query that returns no primary key then it's up to you to create the
UpdateCommand and DeleteCommand yourself, explicitly identifying the records uniquely so that the
correct ones get updated and deleted.

have an insert, delete or update query in my dataset. Rather I had just a FIll / Get Data query. Please
Join Date: Apr 2008
see below for the steps i went through to try and generate a valid update,delete and insert command.
Posts: 15
I loaded the wizard and selected new dataset.

i then set the appropriate connect string settings

selected the database objects i wanted.

but when i click finish and then go to view the dataset in the designer window, i see only a fill, get data
statement

so i right click on the tableadapter and select properties to see what we have there.. it appears
everything is checked appropriately..

so then i go to the add query builder to see if i cant add the appropriate query. after running the wizard
and selecting to have valid insert, update and delete commands,

I STILL have a fill, get data statement and nothing else... except when i look at the properties of the
adapter, i see valid update and insert and delete commands...

I do have a primary key set for my table.. is this correctly done? do i need to do it for the dataset when i
create it? My impression was that the dataset becomes an in memory copy of the datatable.. thus taking
the key relationships as well..

i follow the examples online to the T and yet i still end up with this difference.. Please help guide me
towards correcting this problem. Thank you in advance for your dedication to my increasing my
knowledge of this problem.

OK, now you're posting the same stuff in two threads and one of them's not even yours. One thread per
topic and one topic per thread please. It's a waste of my time, your time and anybody else who might be
trying to track down the same information if the same question is being answered in multiple threads.

Re: Tableadapter Update Command only works once!?@

Because they are the only methods that execute queries. The Update method is what executes the
DeleteCommand, InsertCommand and UpdateCommand, which are not queries. That query list shows all
the methods that correspond to SELECT statements. You can add more queries if you want to allow the
user to specify different combinations of parameters to filter the data. there will still only ever be one

New Member Yes. Thank you JMCillhinney. I was investigating the issue further and decided to try and add a new
Query to contain the update method. I went to the designer window and selected the table adapter and
Join Date: Apr 2008 right clicked to show add -> Query. I selected use SQL statement then selected update. Now at this
Posts: 15 point i noticed that the code was already filled in for me with a valid SQL statment on how to select and
update the rows according to their key value. The difference here is that in my original dataset i didnt
have this pre-populated code. when creating that dataset i remember i only selected tables when asked
what i wanted to have the dataset contain. this time i selected everything, including stored proceedures
and then i added them manually and it works. I test run the program and no error. I ran a build and tried
it out of VS and it worked as well.

Thank you so much for your guidance. And sorry again for the double posting.
