Before, I'm even wondering how to modify data in Visual Basic .NET especially if you used to work with Visual Basic 6.0. Although, there are slight difference with the two versions but I found .NET more interesting compare to VB 6.0.

Comparison

In this tutorial I will explain first on how to modify data using ExecuteNonQuery. When using ExecuteNonQuery to modify data you execute it using a Command.
