dataset question

hi,

my script is working fine, i have a button that executes a query and fill my dataset.
but when i click again the button and execute the query it is just adding it to my dataset.
i need to reset the dataset when i click the button, because it is a new query.

Code:

---

Private Sub bttnStart_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles bttnStart.Click
        Dim conn As New OleDbConnection()
        conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|\ApplicationKit.accdb"

        Dim MyVariable As String
        Dim ChosenBttn As String
        Dim Vowel As String
        Dim Table As String

        Table = "Word"
        Vowel = "Word"
        MyVariable = cbPhonemes.SelectedIndex
        MyVariable = MyVariable + 1
        If bttnInitial.Checked = True Then
            ChosenBttn = "Initial"
        End If
        If bttnMedial.Checked = True Then
            ChosenBttn = "Medial"
        End If
        If bttnFinal.Checked = True Then
            ChosenBttn = "Final"
        End If

        Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT word, meaning FROM word WHERE (ID = " & MyVariable & ") AND ( [Position] = '" & ChosenBttn & "')"
        Dim da As New OleDbDataAdapter(strSQL, conn)

        da.Fill(ds)

        If ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then 'Check to see if the table is empty
            lblWord.Text = ds.Tables(0).Rows(0).Item("Word").ToString()
        End If

    End Sub

as ds is not local to the procedure, it never "die" and fill method called that way adds to it, do not substitute or refresh.
If you need it alive, you have a couple of options:
1)before filling it again, call
ds.Tables.Clear()
2)or use an overload of the fill method of OledbDataAdapter:
Table="word"
...
da.Fill(Ds, Table)
