Hi Joel,
A DataTable is a disconnected set of data. It may or may not be data from a
database, or have anything to do with a database. When a DataTable is
populated from a database, it must be populated by a DataReader, either as a
member of a DataAdapter, or independently. The DataReader or DataAdapter has
the Connection to the database. So, to insert data into a database, either a
Connection and Command must be used, or a DataAdapter, which contains a
Connection and a set of Commands must be used. In any case, the data is not
literally updated as a batch, but in a looping construct that inserts the
records one at a time. How you wish to do the insertion work is up to you.

database by a datatable.
