getting text and numbers from mysql database to put into labels and progressbar

Question

Hi,
I am creating a game where i have made a login form thats uses the mysql database for the user accounts.
The database stores account's login info, level, XP, Coins.
all goes well when you login.
when i go to form 2 i want to say hello to the user like: Welcome User
on form 2 is a label called Levellabel.text
And also i want to show the XP amount in a progressbar.
In the database :
Level: 9
XP: 244
ID: 0000000001
when i run the app it gives me this when i change the XP to VARCHAR in the database, when changed to INT it gives error below:
Level: 0
XP: 1
ID: 2

I am getting this error when using INT in the database for XP end Level:
Error: Conversion from string "XP" to type 'integer' is not valid.
I need help because im stuck
here is the code:
     

 Dim mMySQLConnectionString As String = "Server=localhost;Database=game;Uid=root;password =password"
        
        Dim conn As MySqlConnection
        Dim dr As MySqlDataReader
        Dim cmd As New MySqlCommand     
        conn = New MySqlConnection()
        conn.ConnectionString = mMySQLConnectionString
        Try
            conn.Open() 
           
            cmd.CommandText = "SELECT Level, XP, ID FROM user WHERE Username='?Username'('" & Levellabel.Text & "')"
            cmd.Parameters.Add(New MySqlParameter("?UserName", Usernamelabel.Text))
            cmd.Connection = conn
            dr = cmd.ExecuteReader
            dr.Read()
'!Here is where i want to give the value's to my label and progressbar!
            
Levellabel.Text = dr.GetValue("Level")
IDlabel.Text = (dr.GetOrdinal("ID"))
'Levellabel.Text = (dr.GetOrdinal("Level"))
'XPlabel.Text = (dr.GetValue("XP"))
XPbar.Value = (dr.GetValue("XP"))
Me.XPlabel.Text = dr("XP").ToString
 
 
        Catch myerror As MySqlException
            MessageBox.Show("Database Error: " & myerror.Message, Application.ProductName, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
        Catch ex As Exception
            MessageBox.Show("Error: " & ex.Message, Application.ProductName, MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information)
        Finally
            cmd.Parameters.Clear()
            conn.Close()
            cmd.Dispose()
            conn.Dispose()

I hope someone can help me.
