Thanks for the help and I appreciate your advice.
I have abandoned doing what I was intending to do and have since found
a way around the problem. I think the main reason I wanted to do it
that way initially was for visual appeal. However I have moved on with
my project (the project I'm working on is an attendance recording and
monitoring system for a small secondary school, its my final year
project undertaking for college).

I keep getting the following error as I am trying to get the 'save'
part of the system going and was hoping for some help:

OleDbException was unhandled
Syntax error in INSERT INTO statement

and the line of code the error points to goes as follows:

objAttendanceDA.Update(objDataSet, "tblAttendance")

The rest of my code is :

    Private Sub btnSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e
As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSave.Click
        'Save the attendance
        Dim dateToday As Date = Now.Date

        'setup the relationship
        objDataSet.Relations.Clear()
        objDataSet.Relations.Add("Class2Student", _
                                 objDataSet.Tables("tblClass").Columns
("ClassID"), _
                                 objDataSet.Tables
("tblStudent").Columns("ClassID"))
        objDataSet.Relations.Add("Student2Attendance", _
                                 objDataSet.Tables
("tblStudent").Columns("StudentID"), _
                                 objDataSet.Tables
("tblAttendance").Columns("StudentID"))

        'Select the next row
        objCurrentRow1 = objDataSet.Tables("tblAttendance").NewRow
        mintStudentID = objDataSet.Tables("tblStudent").Rows.Count

        objCurrentRow1.Item("StudentID") = mintStudentID
        objCurrentRow1.Item("Attendance Date") = dateToday
        objCurrentRow1.Item("Present") = Tues1.CheckState
        objDataSet.Tables("tblAttendance").Rows.Add(objCurrentRow1)
        objAttendanceDA.Update(objDataSet, "tblAttendance")
        objDataSet.AcceptChanges()

        MsgBox("Saving Complete", MsgBoxStyle.OkOnly, "Saved")

    End Sub

I think I might have an idea as to why I keep getting the error. On my
windows form you select a class from a combobox and then the class
list (all the student names) are populated into a listbox. We'll say
there are 25 names, then there is also 25 checkboxes next to the list
of names. If all students are present, all checkboxes are checked. So
what the save button really needs to do is save the attendance for the
class, but the code I have so far is only kinda for one row. Also to
save to the Attendance table, a StudentID is needed and I don't really
know how to deal with that in my code. All the names that come into
the list box have an associated StudentID and it is those ID I need to
save.

I hope the way I have explained this is somewhat clear and any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
