Execute insert sql statement in vb.net 2005
Hi,
I am trying to get to grips with vb.net and sql server. I have managed to retrieve data into a dataset like I would in vb6 but using record sets but I am not too sure how to execute an insert statement as obviously it doesn't need a dataset. The code I have used for the dataset is: -
Public Class frmAddProduct
Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
On Error GoTo error_Handler
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim sql As String
sql = "Select * from Customers"
dbOpen()
Dim da As New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(s
da.Fill(ds, "Customers")
DataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables("Customers")
error_Handler:
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox("An error has occured while connecting to the SQL Server. Error no: " & Err.Number & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Description:" & vbCrLf & Err.Description)
dbClose()
End
End If
MsgBox("Success")
dbClose()
End Sub
End Class
Best Regards
Lee

CreateCommand ("insert into <table> values (1,2,3) ", "Driver={SQL Server};Server=myServerAdd
Unlike ASO, the connection object in ADO.net doesn't have the execute method to execute a query. However th command object has a similar method called ExecuteNonQuery. You can use this method to execute your insert statement.
Oops..Dhaest types faster :-))
How are you creating the new record that you want to insert? Because, if it created in the datatable, or created in a bound control and so gets into the datatable, you would be able to use the dataadapter to do the insert. Have a look at the last post in this thread

Although it's coded for OleDb it is just applicable, with the terminology changed, to SQL
