        ' return ID
        Return newRow("ID")
    End Function

I am having this error Command parameter[1] '' is invalid. in da.Update(enroll, "biodata")

Why don't you use the IDE and generate a typed dataset? You're making a mess of code there.

da.InsertCommand = New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO Biodata (surname,template) Values (?,?)",connection)

da.InsertCommand.CommandType = CommandType.Text
da.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("?", OleDbType.VarChar, 50, "surname")
da.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("?", OleDbType.Binary, template.Size, "template")
