Problem Inserting Data From IDictionary Into Sql2005

Hi,

I'm not sure if this should be in the Sql or VB forums.

Using VS2005 I have a graphics program which holds data in a Dictionary Object.

The data consists of a Key and a Structure called Arrows. This structure holds a startpoint and an endpoint, both of which consist of x and y co-ordinates. I need to insert these four co-ordinates into X,Y,X1 and Y1 columns of a table,

The following Insert statement will insert the correct IdKey and Textbox data, but will not compile the co-ordinates.

I have initialised the Points of the structure, but get the error message that Type is not defined.

With dbCommand

Dim _mstartPoint As Point

Dim _mendPoint As Point

Dim strSql As String

For Each kvp As KeyValuePair(Of String, Arrow) In Arrows

strSql = "INSERT INTO Drawing_Arrows (ArrowId,FlashingCode,X1,Y1,X2,Y2) Values ('" & kvp.Key & "', '" & txt_Title.Text & "','" & CType(Arrows(kvp.Key), _mstartPoint).x.ToString & "', '" & CType(Arrows(kvp.Key), _mstartPoint).y.ToString & "''" & CType(Arrows(kvp.Key), _mendPoint).x.ToString & "', '" & CType(Arrows(kvp.Key), _mendPoint).y.ToString & "')"

.CommandText = strSql

.CommandType = Data.CommandType.Text

.Connection = dbConnection

.ExecuteNonQuery()

Next

End With

My problem is how to extract the _mstartPoint x and _mstartPoint y as seperate items for insertion into X and Y in the table.



Any suggestions welcome.
