Please complete required fields message box - vb.net

I'm trying to do a "Please complete required fields" messagebox.
Tt does show up but "Account Created" also pops out just right after "Please complete required fields" appears whenever I try entering even one character in a textbox or clicking one of the two radio button.
Also instead of "Please complete required fields", "User already exists!" shows up whenever the fields are empty.
Can somebody tell me what's wrong with my codes?
Thank you....

I agree with DavidSdot, your code is out of order.
Here is an example that might work. I say might because im not very good at vb.net. So you might need to change a few things to make it work. However, that being said, the following might do you well regarding the correct order in which it should go.
Try
Using conn = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection()
conn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;" & _
"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\Thesis\Thesis\Database2.accdb"
If ((TextBox1.Text <> "" And TextBox2.Text <> "") And (RadioButton1.Checked <> False Or RadioButton2.Checked <> False)) Then
conn.Open()
Using dbCommand As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand("select count(username) from tbl_user where username like ?", conn)
dbCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#uname", TextBox1.Text)
Dim result As Integer = DirectCast(dbCommand.ExecuteScalar(), Integer)
If result = 0 Then
Dim sql As String = "INSERT INTO tbl_user (username, [password],facultymember,student) " & _
"VALUES (#uname,#pwd,#fmem,#stud)"
Dim sqlCom As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand(sql, conn)
sqlCom.Parameters.AddWithValue("#uname", TextBox1.Text)
sqlCom.Parameters.AddWithValue("#pwd", TextBox2.Text)
sqlCom.Parameters.AddWithValue("#fmem", RadioButton1.Checked)
sqlCom.Parameters.AddWithValue("#stud", RadioButton2.Checked)
Dim sqlRead As System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataReader = sqlCom.ExecuteReader()
RadioButton1.Checked = False
RadioButton2.Checked = False
TextBox1.Text = ""
TextBox2.Text = ""
MessageBox.Show("Account created successfully!")
Me.Hide()
LoginUser.Show()
Else
MessageBox.Show("Username already exists!")
Return
End If
End Using
Else
MessageBox.Show("Please complete the required fields.", "Authentication Error!", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Error)
End If
conn.Close()
End Using
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show("Error:" & ex.Message)

You should really take a look at the logic of Button1_click sub, because it is really hard to understand.
You opening your database twice
you already inserted a user with username="" and password="" thats why you get user exists message when you have not enter anything
Account created successfully! is always shown after Please complete the required fields as there is no check/return/whatever when fields as missing
No idea why the DB Insert is called on every keystroke as there is no code for that in what you posted

I press 'Submit', my MS Access Login Database has captured all the data I typed.
After that, The login form will reappear again. However, even though I had saved the details in my Login DB. I still can't manage to Login into my system. My guess is that it's because the Database in the Login form has not 'refreshed' yet.
So my question is How do I 'refresh' the database in my login form?
Connections use unmanaged resources which they release in their Dispose method. You must Dispose connections. Using...End Using blocks handle this for us. Declare connections in the method where the are used, not at the Class level. Declare the connection string at the class level so it can be used in any method in the class.
Don't include empty Subs in your question. The Timer and the date label have nothing to do with the question. Don't include these methods.
Enable your Timer at design time. It is pointless to create a local variable for a new connection in Form.Load and then let it fall out of scope before it is ever used. Remember, connections need to be disposed.
In the btnShowPassword method (which is strangely a picture box, why?) you can toggle a Boolean property in a single line.
In Button1.Click use OrElse to short circuit the If. It will stop evaluating expressions as soon as it finds a True.
Now to the database code. You will never need to check ConnectionState because it will be declared in the method in a Using block. Both the connection and the command are included in the Using block because commands need to be disposed too. Don't open the connection until directly before the .Execute...
I am happy to see the use of Parameters. I used the actual parameter name in the CommandText. The question mark works fine but it easier to tie the parameters to the ParametersCollection when you can see names. Access only pays attention to the position but it makes it easier to read.
The vb specific CInt has been optimized in .net.
The first code block should look like this.
Private ConStr As String = My.Settings.Business_ProfileConnectionString '"Your connection string"
Private Sub btnShowPassword(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles PictureBox3.Click
txtBPPassword.UseSystemPasswordChar = Not txtBPPassword.UseSystemPasswordChar
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
If txtBPID.Text = "" OrElse txtBPPassword.Text = "" Then
MsgBox("Enter Credentials", MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, "Error!")
Else
Dim count As Integer
Using connection As New OleDbConnection(ConStr),
cmd As New OleDbCommand("select count(*) from [Business Details] where Email=#1 and Password=#2", connection)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#1", OleDbType.VarChar).Value = txtBPID.Text
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#2", OleDbType.VarChar).Value = txtBPPassword.Text
connection.Open()
count = CInt(cmd.ExecuteScalar())
End Using
If count = 0 Then
MsgBox("Login succeed!", MsgBoxStyle.Information)
frmWelcomeNew.Show()
Me.Hide()
Else
MsgBox("Account not found. Check your credentials!", MsgBoxStyle.Critical, "Error!")
End If
End If

In the second Form I am dividing up the code in btnNext.Click method.
It would be rare for a phone number to have no dashes or maybe ext. but I left it alone. I just got rid of the IsNumeric left over from vb6.
I am surprised that you are not using the settings that you used in the first form. This might be your problem.

One more thing. Passwords should never be stored as plain text. Look up salting and hashing.
In your "register" method you explicitly put the connection string in code:
pro = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\Users\chiac\OneDrive\Desktop\OMC\Code\[OMC] Business Partner\[OMC] Business Partner\Business Profile.accdb"
In your login function you get it out of settings:
Dim connection As New OleDbConnection(My.Settings.Business_ProfileConnectionString)
(You also have the same code on the last line of Form Load, which is useless and should be removed)
--
I strongly suspect that these two connection strings point at different databases - your code is writing to a database, and you're opening it in access and seeing the data, but the app is looking in a different DB
If the settings mention |DataDirectory| or no absolute path, then the situation will potentially be even more confusing for you - you have a DB on your desktop, you have a DB in your project folder and you have a DB in your bin folder. If you ever make an update/insert that uses the connectionstring from settings, then you're editing the DB in the bin folder, but this DB is overwritten with a new copy of the DB from the project folder every time the app starts, so your changes are lost. Of course, in a production setting this doesn't happen because there is no bin folder or compilation process; it is merely a developer convenience (as a dev you're supposed to e.g. add new tables to the DB in the project folder)
Make sure your app is consistently looking in the same DB for all its operations (make your insert code use Settings too)

You have no code in between that assigns an object to that table variable. Why exactly are you surprised that there's an issue here? If I told you to fill a bag and then handed you no bag, how exactly would you go about filling it? You couldn't, because you can't fill a bag that doesn't exist, yet you expect your app to be able to fill a DataTable that doesn't exist.

How do I display data from Ms access in my application within VB 2008 for a specific User in my databse

I am building this application within Vb 2008 that will allow users to login to their account (after having registered first) and view their information which has been stored in a database in MS Access. So far I have created the login and registration form, and the view profile form, but I want to know how on the users information from the data. I know that i will need to somehow send the id value of the user that has logged in from the login from to the view profile form,but how would I go about doing that.
Please if you could help I would really appreciate it

There are a lot of security concerns in your code that really should be addressed, but that notwithstanding, you just need to read the user id as part of the login procedure.
Currently you are just assuming validation on the fact that there is something to read, If sqlRead.Read() Then, rather than actually reading and storing a value (the user id) from the result set.
If you modify your SQL to, for example, SELECT user_id from .... and instead you made a call to sqlCom.ExecuteScalar() the return value would be the user_id which you could then store say in a session variable or some other persistent storage so that the id is available on the profile page.

Identifier expected? visual basic

Why is my form disappearing when I press ENTER?

Good-day,
I'm experiencing a very strange event that just started happening. Whenever I press the ENTER button on my keyboard, I expect the KeyDown event of my textbox to be raised and the corresponding code run. Instead, the form disappears (as if the .Hide() method has been called). When I debug, I see that the code that's supposed to run after the KeyDown event is raised is executing accordingly - but the form just disappears.
I've never encountered this before, so I don't know what to do. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Although what follows will not likely solve the form disappearance problem, it will resolve a downstream issue:
In GetDBData(), you are assigning accountNumber to the value of TextBoxAcount.Text, which must be enclosed with quotes unless you employ a parameter which I strongly recommend you get in the habit of doing.
Dim dbAdapter As New MySqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM customer WHERE accountNumber = " & TextBoxAccount.Text, dbConn)
Parameters offer a number of benefits including implicit type conversions, injection attack prevention, and will sometimes even cure unexpected behaviors.
I figured out the problem. I was calling Dispose() at the end of my GetDBData() function - so the form was getting disposed before execution returned back to the TextBox. I deleted it and all is well again.
