·         In Edit button Click event filling the selected data from Gridview into Name and location textboxes.
·         In Update Button click event updating data which are edited the name and location textboxes.
Write the following code in Form.cs :
Form.cs Code :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

namespace savedata
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {

        SqlConnection con = newSqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["Sqlcon"].ConnectionString);
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            Bind();

        }

        private void Clear()
        {
            txtName.Text = string.Empty;
            txtLocation.Text = string.Empty;
        }

        private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            con.Open();
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Insert Into Test_Data(Name,Location) Values (@Name,@Location)", con);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Name", txtName.Text);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Location", txtLocation.Text);
            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            con.Close();
            MessageBox.Show("Inserted sucessfully");
            Bind();
            Clear();
        }

        private void Bind()
        {
            con.Open();
            SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from Test_Data", con);
            DataTable dt = new DataTable();
            da.Fill(dt);
            dataGridView1.DataSource = dt;
            con.Close();
        }

        private void btnDelete_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            SqlCommand delcmd = new SqlCommand();
            if (dataGridView1.Rows.Count > 1 && dataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index != dataGridView1.Rows.Count - 1)
            {
                delcmd.CommandText = "DELETE FROM Test_Data WHERE ID=" + dataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Cells[0].Value.ToString() + "";
                con.Open();
                delcmd.Connection = con;
                delcmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                con.Close();
                dataGridView1.Rows.RemoveAt(dataGridView1.SelectedRows[0].Index);
                MessageBox.Show("Row Deleted");
            }
            Bind();
        }

        private void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            con.Open();
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Update Test_Data set Name=@Name,Location=@Location Where(Name=@Name)", con);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Name", txtName.Text);
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Location", txtLocation.Text);
            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
            MessageBox.Show("updated......");
            con.Close();
            Bind();
            Clear();
        }

        private void btnEdit_Click_1(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int i;
            i = dataGridView1.SelectedCells[0].RowIndex;
            txtName.Text = dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[1].Value.ToString();
            txtLocation.Text = dataGridView1.Rows[i].Cells[2].Value.ToString();
        }
    }
}

  3. Well looks like your code works till the time the application is running. The dataset is definitely updated with the changes that I make, however no changes are made to the actual database table if I try to manually view the table data contents. If I close the application and relaunch, the original table data shows on the datagrid view, as if no changes were made to it!

    Any help on this matter will be appreciated!

  5. This is really helpful for me. I have small external project to develop a small software which can insert data via C#.net form and end of every month or a week, users could be able to view the data in there database via report. I'm thinking of using a crystal report for that. Now i can insert data via .net form by using your code. Tnx again for that. can you please tell me how to create a crystal report to retrieve data from the database and view them to the users. This report should run via another form. Report should generate according tot the given parameters via the form....Thanks in advance
