Every time I tried to connect to the database it give me this error "The ConnectionString property has not been initialized"
what can I do to solve this?
here are my codes
Module Module1
Function GetInfoForStudent(ByRef QueryName As String, ByVal UserName As String, ByVal Password As String) As DataTable
Using Con As New SqlConnection
Try
Using OleCon As New SqlConnection
Dim Connection As String = "Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=G:\VB Project\Library
Catalog System\Library Catalog System\library.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
Con.Open()
Dim Cmd As SqlCommand = Con.CreateCommand()
Cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
Cmd.CommandText = QueryName
Cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@user", UserName)
Cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@pass", Password)
Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter(Cmd)
Dim ds As New DataTable()
da.Fill(ds)
Return ds
End Using
Catch ex As Exception
Throw New Exception(ex.Message)
End Try
End Using
End Function
End Module
Sub ShowStudentInfo()
Dim dt As DataTable = GetInfoForStudent("MyStoredProcName", "@user", "@pass")
' Since (presumably) only one is returned
With dt.Rows(0)
' Assign your text boxes
StudentIDTextBox.Text = .Item("StudentID")
LoginIDTextBox.Text = .Item("LoginID")
Student_NameTextBox.Text = .Item("Student Name")
Student_addressTextBox.Text = .Item("Student address")
End With
End Sub

You never assigned your connection string to the connection object, just like the error is saying.
Insert a line setting the connection string before con.open.
Con.connectionstring = connection
Con.Open()
Or better yet, change your using statement as follows
Dim Connection As String = "Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=G:\VB Project\Library Catalog System\Library Catalog System\library.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True"
Using Con As New SqlConnection(connection)

You are creating the connection string object but never assigning it to your SqlCommand
object.
