Inserting Data using ADO.Net Entity Data Model

In order to select data from a Model using the ADO.Net Entity Data Model, we should first create an ADO.Net Entity Data Model class, refer to the post Creating your First ADO.Net Entity Data Model to see on how to create an ADO.Net Entity Data Model, that maps to the physical database.

Once you have created the ADO.Net Entity Data Model class, we can proceed with querying the model to select data. In this post we shall see on how to use the ADO.Net Entity Data Model to INSERT a record into the Employee table.




1. Create an Object of the ADO.Net Entity Data Model class
2. Create an Object of the Employee Class
3. Add the details to be inserted to the Employee Object
4. Add the Employee Object to the ADO.Net Entity Data Model
5. Commit changes to the Model

Here is the code to INSERT rows using the ADO.Net Entity Data Model

EmployeesEntities dbContext = new EmployeesEntities();
//
Employee objEmployee = new Employee();
objEmployee.Name = "Chris";
objEmployee.DOB = "11/11/1967";
objEmployee.DOJ = "05/01/2009";
//
dbContext.AddToEmployee(objEmployee);
dbContext.SaveChanges();

6. Once we execute the code, a new record for Chris will get Inserted into the Employee Table.
