c# visual studio 2012 - Simple example of creating a new record (in a simple Access database) from form controls such as textboxes

Hi,

Does anyone have a very simple, very easy to understand example of how I can go about creating a new record in a simple data base?

• I have 5 Combos from which the user selects a value (these are unbound and display values are added manually).
• I have a command button which will be used to submit the record.
• I have a DataSource connected to the project.
• I do not want to use a DataGrid to update the data as I am using the DataGrid to return the results from the database (there is a query that will be run on the newly added data).

I sort of just expect to use a AddNewRecord and then match the controls.text with the fields from the database...

Why is something so simple, so complicated?

Many thanks in advance

Wendy
