To navigate or go between screens using Visual Basic simply use formName.Show()
Replace fromName with the name of your form. This will open the form specified.

SQL provides a number of different date formatting options. Use getdate() to get the date
then convert to a string and format as desired.

1             select convert(varchar, getdate(), 1)      12/28/09
