In this Article I will explain How to insert, update, edit, delete, clear using datagridview in C# from one Form to another Form.
In my previous articles I explained How to display data in datagridview, How to add auto generate SNo in datagridview and also How to add Edit and Deletelink buttons in datagridview.
We can see my Out Put looks like
In this example I am having Two Forms.
I designed Form1 looks like this, Please check my previouspost if you having any doubts
Now I am adding another form, Form2.cs and I designed my Form2.cs as shown below
After completion of UI design.
My Solution explorer looks as shown below.
I design my table with name Employee looks like this
For this table i written two stored procedures for Insert and update.
USE [dotnetdb] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[SP_InsertEmpinfo] Script Date: 07/21/2013 15:09:09 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO Create procedure [dbo].[SP_InsertEmpinfo] ( @EmpId nvarchar(50), @EmpName nvarchar(50), @EmpAddress nvarchar(50), @EmpDesignation nvarchar(50) ) As Begin Insert into Employee (EmpId,EmpName,EmpAddress,EmpDesignation) values (@EmpId,@EmpName,@EmpAddress,@EmpDesignation) end GO USE [dotnetdb] GO /****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[SP_UpdateEmpInfo] Script Date: 07/21/2013 15:09:38 ******/ SET ANSI_NULLS ON GO SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON GO create procedure [dbo].[SP_UpdateEmpInfo] ( @Empid nvarchar(50), @EmpName nvarchar(50), @EmpAddress nvarchar(50), @EmpDesignation nvarchar(50) ) As Begin update Employee set EmpName = @EmpName,EmpAddress = @EmpAddress,EmpDesignation = @EmpDesignation where Empid = @Empid End GOAfter Creating Stored Procedure, I Written the code for Insert,Update,Edit,Delete,Clear. In Form1.cs and Form2.cs.

Form1.cs having datagridview with Edit and Delete LinkButtons.

{
if (e.ColumnIndex == 5)
{
empid = Convert.ToString(dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells["EmpId"].Value);
Form2 fm2 = new Form2();
fm2.Show();
}
if (e.ColumnIndex == 6)
{

DataSet ds = new DataSet();
da.Fill(ds);
displayDataGridView();
dataGridView1.Refresh();
}
}
}
}
App.Config:
After Completing all the steps Press F5.
OutPut:
Inserting the data with Label message.
The Data we inserted in Form2 it was displayed in Form1 as shown below.
Now if you want to Edit the Information,when we click on edit it shows form2.cs
I updated the EmpAdress from Us to America.
Now after Updating Form2 it will display Form1 with updated information.
Now if we click on delete the row will be deleted from the datagridview as well as from database as shown below in Datagridview.
