VBA slow reading back from database

I have an Access database that i write to using VBA from an excel spreadsheet.
the spreadsheet has a listview called lstfail loaded with all of the data that is entered into the database.

when data is entered onto the spreadsheet the data is writen to the database without any problem. once the data is saved to the database the listview should update with the latest data from the database. This isnt happening, i am having to close excel and reopen to see the new data. i have even put a time delay in before reading back the data.

this is how im writing to the database

Code:

---

    Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
    dbPath = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path & "\Touch Sheet.mdb"
    cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & dbPath & ";"
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    sSQL = "SELECT * From [Failures]"
    rs.Open sSQL, cn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic
    rs.AddNew
    rs!Date = Format(Now, "dd/mm/yyyy")
    rs!Month = Format(Now, "mmmm")
    rs!CompTime = ""
    rs!Category = cbFCat.Value
    rs!Type = cbFType.Value
    rs!WO = cbFWO.Value
    rs!Serial = txtSerial.Text
    rs!PartNo = cbFPartNo.Value
    rs!TBCode = Left(cbFTBCode.Value, 2)
    rs!TBCodeDesc = Replace(cbFTBCode.Value, Left(cbFTBCode.Value, 4), "")
    rs!Lost = "1"
    rs!Reason = txtReason.Text
    rs!Operator = cbFOperator.Value
    rs!process = cbFProcess.Value
    rs.Update
    rs.Close

this is how loading the listview with the data after writing to the databse

Code:

---

Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
    dbPath = Application.ActiveWorkbook.Path & "\Touch Sheet.mdb"
    cn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & dbPath & ";"
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    sSQL = "SELECT * From [Failures] ORDER BY [WO]"
    rs.Open sSQL, cn, adOpenDynamic, adLockUnspecified
    i = 1
    Do Until rs.EOF
        With frmTouchSheet.lstFail
            .ListItems.Add , , ""
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Date
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Month
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!CompTime
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Category
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Type
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!WO
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Serial
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!PartNo
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!TBCode
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!TBCodeDesc
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Lost
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Reason
            .ListItems.Item(i).ListSubItems.Add = rs!Operator
            .ForeColor = vbBlack
            .SelectedItem.Selected = False
        End With
        i = i + 1
        rs.MoveNext
    Loop

when the first set of data is entered it is loaded into the listview straight away, form the second set onwards it doesnt load or it loads the first set again.

Be sure to set your connection and record set to nothing. See the end of this example:

You don't appear to be clearing the Listview.Listitems anywhere, so you are adding the new data after the previous data set.

Close the connection. Maybe something is holding it open.

Also, you probably don't need dynamic cursors.

Code:

---

Dim cn As ADODB.Connection
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset

Private Sub Command0_Click()

    Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
    Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset

    cn.ConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=C:\test.accdb;"
   
    cn.Open

        rs.Open "SELECT * From table1", cn, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic

            rs.AddNew
                rs!a = Day(Date)
                rs!b = Month(Date)
                rs!c = Year(Date)
            rs.Update
        rs.Close
    cn.Close
   
    rsout
End Sub

Sub rsout()
    cn.Open

        rs.Open "select * from table1", cn, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly

            Do Until rs.EOF

                'print out
                Debug.Print rs(0).Value, rs(1).Value, rs(2).Value, rs(3).Value

                rs.MoveNext
            Loop
        rs.Close
    cn.Close
End Sub
