It stated that "incorrect syntax near 1"...


Anyone can help me on this matter?

Format the date like this (m/d/y) is what you had, so I didn't change it

Code:

---

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub Form1_Activated(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Activated
        Dim d As String, m As String, y As String
        Dim dte As String = "12/04/71", DOB As Date
        d = dte.Substring(0, 2)
        m = dte.Substring(3, 2)
        y = dte.Substring(6, 2)
        If (d.ToString <> "" And m.ToString <> "" And y.ToString <> "") Then
            DOB = CDate(m & "/" & d & "/" & y)
        End If
        MsgBox(DOB & "  Month: " & DOB.Month)
    End Sub
End Class

Depending on the DB, you might need #'s around the date

First thing first: use parameterized queries! You'll make the code easier to read and safer.
Regarding the date issue: will that conversion work on all systems (for all locales)? You should not hardcode the "/" date separator, but use the one set in the current locale. You can get it from DateTimeFormatInfo.DateSeparator.
