Hello,

I Searched the internet to use the OleDbAdapter to insert a dataset into my database but until now i came out with nothing.

can anyone please tell me the way to do it

PS: Don't want to spend lots of time looping through the rows while inserting, i need something like Adapter.Update(DataSet1,"Items") or something close to it, please :)

Hi,

Have a look at the first answer of this question:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1258637/insert-dataset-records-in-database[^]
The answer is C# code, this is the same code converted in VB.NET:

VB

' Prerequisite: The data to be inserted is available in a DataTable/DataSet.
Dim data = New DataTable()
data.Columns.Add("CompanyName", GetType(String))
data.Columns.Add("Phone", GetType(String))
data.Rows.Add("Foo", "12345678")
data.Rows.Add("Bar", "87654321")

' Now, open a database connection using the Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB provider.
' The "using" statement ensures that the connection is closed no matter what.
Using connection = New OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data source=Northwind.mdb")
	connection.Open()

	' Create an OleDbDataAdapter and provide it with an INSERT command.
	Dim adapter = New OleDbDataAdapter()
	adapter.InsertCommand = New OleDbCommand("INSERT INTO Shippers (CompanyName, Phone) VALUES (@CompanyName , @Phone)", connection)
	adapter.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("CompanyName", OleDbType.VarChar, 40, "CompanyName")
	adapter.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("Phone", OleDbType.VarChar, 24, "Phone")

	' Hit the big red button!
	adapter.Update(data)
End Using
