This isn't a site where you give vague requirements and people do your work for you. Break the problem down into smaller sections and tackle each section.

First you need to be able to read the file line by line - ReadLine

Each line then needs to be broken into it's fields - Substring

Once you have your fields you then insert into your database. That is also very well document so choose either ado.net or entity framework and google how to insert data using your chosen method.

We don't do your work for you.
But here's how I'd do it:
1) Read the file into an array of strings: File.ReadAllLines will do that.
2) Set up a DataTable with the appropriate columns
3) Loop through each line
3.1) Use string.Substring to break the line into parts.
3.2) Use int.TryParse and DateTime.TryParseExact to convert the parts to "proper" datatypes.
3.3) Add the "proper" values to the DataTable as a new row.
4) Use a DataAdapter to write the DataTable to the DB.
