    <p>First off I'd like to apologize if this is more of a question than an example but I'm really lost here. I have a Windows Form that loads info from a text file. In each text file there is all the cities and counties in a given state, each section is separated by the <code>.Split</code>. I have a <code>SQL Server 2008</code> database, 2 columns, Name and type. What I'd like to do is take all of the information and add it too individual rows with the name column being the name and the type column being state or county. Here is how I have the information split. How would I add a new row for each entry in the text?</p> <pre><code>void PopulateZones() { ofdFile.Filter = "Text File (.txt)|*.txt|All Files (*.*|*.*"; ofdFile.FilterIndex = 1; ofdFile.Multiselect = true; ofdFile.FileName = String.Empty; if (ofdFile.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK) { ofdFileLocTextBox.Text = ofdFile.FileName.ToString(); string groups = File.ReadAllText(ofdFile.FileName); string[] parts = groups.Split(new char[] { '*' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries); stateTextBox.Text = parts[0]; citiesTextBox.Text = parts[1]; countiesTextBox.Text = parts[2]; AddtoSQL(parts[0], parts[1]); } } void AddtoSQL(string cities, string counties) { Sqlconnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString) Sqlcommand comm = new Sqlcommand("INSERT into [Table] (Name, Type) Values (@Name, @Type))"; comm.Parameters.Add(@Name, each line of textbox); comm.Parameters.Add(@Type, City or County); comm.ExecuteNonQuery(); } </code></pre>

    1. CONot the source of your problem, but you should have `conn` and `comm` in `using` blocks: `using (SqlConnection conn = ...){using (SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand(...)){}}`

Guidance
A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
