       Try
           myupdateconnection.Open()
           commandUpdate.ExecuteNonQuery()

       Catch
           MessageBox.Show("Error")
       Finally
           myupdateconnection.Close()
       End Try

What do you mean by "the MySql command is being skipped"? Please remove the TRY/CATCH/FINALLY/END TRY statements and post the exact text of the error message that is displayed. Your MsgBox which displays only "ERROR" is useless for debugging. It would also greatly help if you were to post the resulting SQL commandUpdate text.
