    <p>If I'm reading this correctly, you've got a couple of problems here.</p> <p>Assuming you're connecting to a Microsoft SQL Server here (since you're using the SQLCommand), you're putting double quotes around the username and password variables, thereby denoting that you're comparing the column username with the column (whatever is in the variable). Let's say Username has "john" and password has "1234" in it. Your sql statement looks like this:</p> <pre><code>SELECT level FROM tblUsers WHERE username = "john" and password = "1234" </code></pre> <p>Double Quotes mean that whatever text is in there is the name of a column, so SQL is looking for columns called john and 1234. You should use single quotes / apostrophes.</p> <pre><code>SELECT level FROM tblUsers WHERE username = 'john' and password = '1234' </code></pre> <p>If you're using the username "username" and the password "password", you're actually just selecting level from the user table where the username column = the username column, and the password column = the password column. (:</p> <p>Anyway, besides all of that, pasting variables directly into your SQL query leaves your query open for SQL Injection, so it's better to use parameters.</p> <pre><code>SQLcommand.CommandText = "SELECT level FROM tblUsers WHERE username = @username AND password = @password" SQLcommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@username",username) SQLcommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@password",password) SQLreader = SQLcommand.ExecuteReader() </code></pre> <p>Give that a shot.</p>

    2. COI did see an example on MSDN where they do not use it. It is slightly odd to me. Especially in this case where the field name is the same as the parameter name. "@" distinguishes this in the command. Interesting either way I guess.

    3. COI decided to go ahead and add it. I think it makes it clearer for people who might just be learning about parameters. Thanks (:

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
