Hello Everyone... Can someone tell me what am not doing right here? Because am trying to insert a record into a database through a VB.net 2012 windows form into a MSsql satabase.

Problems:
When I write the codes without the insert statement, it will work well and open the connection. But when I put the insert statement (i.e. cmd=New SqlCommand), it will open the connection and then still go to the catch part by not adding any column at all into the table.

Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data
Public Class Corpers

    Private Sub BtnConnect_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles BtnConnect.Click
        Dim con As New SqlConnection
        Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
        Dim constr As String
        constr = "server=(local)\SQLEXPRESS; initial catalog=master; integrated security=True"
        con = New SqlConnection(constr)
        Try
            con.Open()
            MsgBox("Connection Opened!")
                cmd = New SqlCommand("Insert into tblCorper values ('" + txtFname.Text + "','" + txtMname.Text + "','" + txtLName.Text + "','" + txtAge.Text + "','" + cboSex.Text + "','" + cboState.Text + "','" + cboDept.Text + "')", con)
            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
            MsgBox("Record Added Successfully")
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox("Connection did not open!")
        Finally
            con.Close()
        End Try

    End Sub
