Answer 1

You must do this, to get it running But it must be clear this is vulnurable to sql injection

So you must check TextBox4.Text for valid content.

Dim sql As String = "UPDATE attendance.student SET `" & TextBox4.Text & "` = `" & TextBox4.Text & "` +1 WHERE S_name = @name;” 
Dim conn As MysqlConnection 
Try conn = New MySqlConnection(ConnectionString)
  Dim cmd As New MySqlCommand(sql, conn)
  cmd.Parameters.Add(“@name”, MySqlDbType.VarString, 50).Value = TextBox1.Text
