Add data to the Access database using ADO

Add data to the database using ADO

Tools Used : Visual C# .NET

This program shows how to insert data in an access database using ADO and SQL query. I have an Access 2000 database in project\bin\debug directory. My database name is mcTest.MDB. You can create your own database and copy in your project's debug directory. I am not attaching database with this code because of size problem.

I have a table 'Developer' in this database which has four columns. I am inserting values into two columns Name and Address in this code.

using System;
using System.Data;  
using System.Data.OleDb;  
namespace ADONETWriteQuery 
{
      /// <summary>
      /// Summary description for Class1.
      /// </summary>
      class Class1
      { 
            static void Main(string[] args) 
            { 
                  string strDSN = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=c:\\mcTest.MDB"; 
                  string strSQL = "INSERT INTO Developer(Name, Address ) VALUES(
'NewName', 'NewAddress')" ; 
                  
                  // create Objects of ADOConnection and ADOCommand  
                  OleDbConnection myConn = new OleDbConnection(strDSN); 
                  OleDbCommand myCmd = new OleDbCommand( strSQL, myConn ); 
                  try 
                  { 
                        myConn.Open(); 
                        myCmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); 
                  } 
                  catch (Exception e) 
                  { 
                        Console.WriteLine("Oooops. I did it again:\n{0}", e.Message); 
                  } 
                  finally 
                  { 
                        myConn.Close(); 
                  } 
  
  
  
            }
      } 
}
