如何解决致命的SQL语句错误？

Question

I was having problems updating information in my SQL database using my vb.net application, but recently I found the solution . However now I have run into another problem which is shown in the code below:

 Private Sub cmdupdate_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdupdate.Click
   Dim conn As New MySqlConnection
    Dim myCommand As New MySqlCommand

    '#######
    conn.ConnectionString = "server=" & frmLogin.txtserver.Text & ";" _
& "user id=" & frmLogin.txtusername.Text & ";" _
& "password=" & frmLogin.txtpassword.Text & ";" _
& "database=in_out"
    '#######

    myCommand.Connection = conn
    myCommand.CommandText = "UPDATE event SET" _
        & "status = ?Status " _
        & "WHERE user_id = ?UserID AND message_id = ?MessageID AND creator = ?Creator"

    myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("?UserID", myUserID)
    myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("?MessageID", cbomessage.SelectedValue)
    myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("?Status", cbostatus.SelectedItem)
    myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("?Creator", myUserID)
    myCommand.Connection = conn
    Try
        myCommand.Connection.Open()
        myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
        myCommand.Connection.Close()
    Catch myerror As MySqlException
        MsgBox("There was an error updating the database: " & myerror.Message)
    End Try
End Sub

The exception message is:

Fatal error encountered during command execution.

I don't know if this is simply a syntax error that can be fixed easily, or something to do with my database configuration.

Answer 1

If I decipher your screen shot correctly, then your UPDATE statement is being put together:

"UPDATE event SET" &
"status = ?Status" &
"WHERE user_id = ....... "

This results in:

UPDATE event SETstatus = ?StatusWHERE user_id = .......

so you're really only missing some spaces !

"UPDATE event SET " &    -- observe the SPACE after the SET !
"status = ?Status " &    -- observe the SPACE after the ?Status
"WHERE user_id = ....... "

Answer 2

Add space before ; on below

conn.ConnectionString = "server=" & frmLogin.txtserver.Text & ";" _

Thanks
