Hey. I'm pretty new to ASP.NET and coding it in VB. I'm working on some tutorials on how to view and edit data from a SQL Data Source. I'm using the GridView feature, but I'm getting some errors. The major one, is that it requires me to declare a scalar variable, while the code in the book has none, and after trying to fix it, I'm getting to new errors while compiling, so the web page wont even load. I've been searching for a fix, but I don't understand what I've been finding. I'm including the code I have, and the two compiling errors I'm getting. Thanks for the help.
