Update MySQL Field in VB.NET Error

I am trying to make a very simple program that connects to a MySQL database using VB.NET. My program only has one form and one label. I setup my MySQL database to have a table and one field (a

VARCHAR)called "Tab1". I manually inserted the value "CLOSED" into the Tab1 field using PHPMyAdmin. I want my program to change the value of the field to OPEN/CLOSED and I also want the label text on my form

to change too when it's clicked.

So far, I've added the MySQL.data reference to my project and added:

Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports MySql.Data.MySqlClient

To the General_Declarations

Also I declared a global variable containing a MySQL Connection:

Public Class Form1

    Dim conn As New MySqlConnection

Here is my function that connects to MySQL:

Private Function Connect(ByVal server As String, ByRef user As String, ByRef password As String, ByRef database As String)
        ' Connection string with MySQL Info
        conn.ConnectionString = "server=" + server + ";" _
        & "user id=" + user + ";" _
        & "password=" + password + ";" _
        & "database=" + database + ";"
        Try
            conn.Open()
            Return True
        Catch ex As MySqlException
            Return MsgBox(ex.Message)
        End Try
    End Function

I made the program connect to MySQL on Form_Load like this:

Connect("db4free.net", "boomun", "*******", "boomdb")

And it connects fine but here is where I have the trouble.... I want the field to change from CLOSED to OPEN when I click Label1. It does change to OPEN on the first click, but I get a mysql Error Msgbox saying "There is already an open DataReader associated with this connection that must be closed first".... How do I close the DataReader?

Here is what I have so far:

Private Sub Label1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Label1.Click
        Dim myCommand As New MySqlCommand
        Dim myAdapter As New MySqlDataAdapter
        Dim myData As MySqlDataReader
        Dim SQL As String

        SQL = "SELECT * FROM `boomtable` WHERE `Tab1` = 'CLOSED'"

        myCommand.Connection = conn
        myCommand.CommandText = SQL
        myAdapter.SelectCommand = myCommand

        Try
            myData = myCommand.ExecuteReader()
            myData.Read()
            If myData.HasRows = 0 Then
                Label1.Text = "CLOSED"
                SQL = "UPDATE boomtable SET Tab1 = 'CLOSED' WHERE Tab1 = 'OPEN'"
                myCommand.CommandText = SQL
                myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
                myData.Close()

            Else
                Label1.Text = "OPEN"
                SQL = "UPDATE boomtable SET Tab1 = 'OPEN' WHERE Tab1 = 'CLOSED'"
                myCommand.CommandText = SQL
                myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
                myData.Close()

            End If
        Catch ex As MySqlException
            MsgBox(ex.Message)
        End Try

    End Sub

I have myData.close() there but I still get that error! What gives?

Here is the entire code of the project all together:

        & "database=" + database + ";"
        Try
            conn.Open()
            Return True
        Catch ex As MySqlException
