I currently have a problem attepting to update a record within my database. I have a webpage that displays in text boxes a users details, these details are taken from the session upon login. The aim is to update the details when the user overwrites the current text in the text boxes.

I have a function that runs when the user clicks the 'Save Details' button and it appears to work, as i have tested for number of rows affected and it outputs 1. However, when checking the database, the record has not been updated and I am unsure as to why.

I've have checked the SQL statement that is being processed by displaying it as a label and it looks as so:

UPDATE [users] SET [email]=@email, [firstname]=@firstname, [lastname]=@lastname, [promo]=@promo WHERE ([users].[user_id] = 16)

The function and other relevant code is:

Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)

    changeDetails(emailBox.text, firstBox.text, lastBox.text, promoBox.text)

End Sub

Function changeDetails(ByVal email As String, ByVal firstname As String, ByVal lastname As String, ByVal promo As String) As Integer
    Dim connectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Ole DB Services=-4; Data Source=C:\Documents an"& _
        "d Settings\Paul Jarratt\My Documents\ticketoffice\datab\ticketoffice.mdb"
    Dim dbConnection As System.Data.IDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(connectionString)

    Dim queryString As String = "UPDATE [users] SET [email]=@email, [firstname]=@firstname, [lastname]=@lastname, "& _
        "[promo]=@promo WHERE ([users].[user_id] = " + session.contents.item("ID") + ")"
    Dim dbCommand As System.Data.IDbCommand = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand
    dbCommand.CommandText = queryString
    dbCommand.Connection = dbConnection

    Dim dbParam_email As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter
    dbParam_email.ParameterName = "@email"
    dbParam_email.Value = email
    dbParam_email.DbType = System.Data.DbType.[String]
    dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_email)

    Dim dbParam_firstname As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter
    dbParam_firstname.ParameterName = "@firstname"
    dbParam_firstname.Value = firstname
    dbParam_firstname.DbType = System.Data.DbType.[String]
    dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_firstname)

    Dim dbParam_lastname As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter
    dbParam_lastname.ParameterName = "@lastname"
    dbParam_lastname.Value = lastname
    dbParam_lastname.DbType = System.Data.DbType.[String]
    dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_lastname)

    Dim dbParam_promo As System.Data.IDataParameter = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbParameter
    dbParam_promo.ParameterName = "@promo"
    dbParam_promo.Value = promo
    dbParam_promo.DbType = System.Data.DbType.[String]
    dbCommand.Parameters.Add(dbParam_promo)

    Dim rowsAffected As Integer = 0
    dbConnection.Open
    Try
        rowsAffected = dbCommand.ExecuteNonQuery
    Finally
        dbConnection.Close
    End Try

    labelTest.text = rowsAffected.ToString()

    if rowsAffected = 1 then

    labelSuccess.text = "* Your details have been updated and saved"

    else

    labelError.text = "* Your details could not be updated"

    end if

End Function

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
