Because I have 6 CheckedListBox and whenever I select items from 4 CheckedListBoxes only, an error pops up but it still filters.

*UPDATED
(For every CheckedBoxList, this is the code that I use but with different variable names)
And also is there a way to make multiple data into one? Example is, when I input John in Client 4x, it would show John(x4) in the CheckedListBox. But the goal is to filter.. Is there a way to make John appear once?


VB
Dim dt1 As DataTable
      Dim ds1 As New DataSet
      cnn = New OleDbConnection(connectionString)
      Dim clientList As String = "("
      For item1 As Integer = 0 To CheckedListBox2.CheckedItems.Count - 1
          clientList += "'" & CheckedListBox2.CheckedItems(item1) & "',"
      Next
      clientList = clientList.Substring(0, clientList.Length - 1) + ")"

      Dim sql1 = "select * from NTIdb where Client in " + clientList

      Try
          cnn.Open()
          adptr = New OleDbDataAdapter(sql1, cnn)
          adptr.Fill(ds1)
          adptr.Dispose()
          cnn.Close()

          dt1 = ds1.Tables(0)
          Form5.DataGridView1.DataSource = dt1

      Catch ex As Exception
          MsgBox(ex.ToString)
      End Try
      Form5.DataGridView1.Visible = True

Not clear. What error? Do you mean exception? Please, full exception information, but also show some code sample.

Updated the question! And the error that appears is "In operator without () in query expression" but someone told me it's because I did not check a box from one of the CheckedListBox that's why I get that error.

Maybe you can use distinct in your SQL statement. For example:
Dim sql1 = "select distinct <requiredcolumnonly> from NTIdb where Client in " + clientList
