CopyFromRecordset Object in vb.net

I am trying to export 2 linked SQL Server tables to Excel using VB.net. The IDNo is the linked key field.

I have problem with my code. It only exported the first IDNo to all tabs.

What I am trying to accomplish is:

IDNo should be in the tab name and next tab will rename the next IDNo.

SQL Server 2008 R2 tables:
Dbo.tblHeader:
      IDNo
      Description
      PDesc
      
Dbo.tblDetails
      IDNo
      Dept
      Last_Name
      First_Name
      Hire_Date

Excel.xlsx

This code is working but it only exports the first IDNo to all tabs.

Please help.

My current code:
Dim conn As New ADODB.Connection()
        Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset = Nothing

        conn.Open("Data Source=Main;Initial Catalog=Main;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=hello;")
        conn.CursorLocation = ADODB.CursorLocationEnum.adUseClient
        rs = conn.Execute("dbo.tblHeader", , ADODB.CommandTypeEnum.adCmdTable)

You have something ike the above where each time in the loop you recreate the recordset - hence always using the first record.
You need to have the conn.Execute before the do command AND inside the loop move to the next record whilst there is one

@AndyAinscow:

I tried that but still the first IDNo is exporting  to all Sheet tabs.
Please show your latest code.

ps.  Are you moving to the next record inside the loop?
@AndyAinscow:

Yes.

Thank you.

You have two recordsets rs and rs1.  Please check you are moving to the next record in the one you want to.
@AndyAinscow:

I change to rs1.Movenext to rs.Movenext

It shows the IDNo but it did not rename the sheet tab to the IDNo.

This line of code supposed to do the trick:

.ActiveSheet.name = rs.Fields("IDNo").Value

make any difference?  (Just wondering if the CopyFromRecordset resets to first record)
@AndyAinscow:

Is there a way the rs1 to execute the tblDetails where IDNo = rs.IDNo?

I changed this code to:

  If rs.EOF Then Exit Do
                .Worksheets.Add(after:=.Worksheets(shtCnt))
                shtCnt = shtCnt + 1

                rs.MoveNext()

            Loop
            rs1.MoveNext()
            rs.Close()
            rs1.Close()

But the tblDetails is not populating only the first IDNo to all the tabs.

Is there something I did wrong?

Latest Code and output:
