Neither.

For only the purpose of inserting a record, just take out the code that
creates the insert command from the second piece of code, and skip the
data adapter entirely. Use the ExecuteNonQuery method to run it, just
like in the first piece of code.

Reasons:

There is no need for a data adapter to insert a record. You only need
the command.

You should always use parameters with your command:

- Putting the values directly in the query is difficult without exposing
your code to the risk of SQL injection.

- The database can cache the execution plan for parameterised queries,
as the query doesn't change when the values change. (Not really
important for just an insert, but relevant for more complex queries.)

RP,

This question sounds for me a little bit the same as asking "what is better
a plane or a car".

Beside that both codes are not quiet as good as it can be for several
reasons. Are you using C# 2003 by the way?
