Connecting to SQL - Newbee

I am new to VB.NET and reading thorugh a textbook and trying varoius applications. I have made a connection to an SQL database on a server using VB. NET

I have created a simple form and have included the SQLDataAdapter, SQL Connecition1 and Dataset11. The connections works fine.

I also bound the dataset to a data grid and can preview the data adapter and see the requested data.

I then attempted to fill the dataset in coded from the data adapter using the following code on a button click event -

DataSet11.Clear()

SQLDataAdapter1.Fill(DataSet11)

When I try to run the "Fill" button in the form to generate the query result set I get the following error:

An unhandled exception of the type 'System.Data.SQLClient.SQL Exception' occured in the system.data.dll

Q: Any suggestions as to what I am missing would be appreciated.

    You're using the new objects that generate SQL for you I'd say that you need to specify what the insert query should look like, although I'm not sure, I don't use that stuff, I think it's rubbish.

    If you go to msdn.microsoft.com and look up SQLDataAdapter, I'm sure you'll find examples that will tell you what's going wrong.
