SECONDLY, ADAPTERNAME.UPDATE(DATASETNAME) IS NOT WORKING FOR THE PIECE OF CODE I HAVE WRITTEN ABOVE...PLZ HELP ME ITS VERY URGENT

USE DataGridView and bind the grid with a datasource . first create a new datasource with the table you want to populate in the grid and then populate the grid with that datasource.....The datagridview has an option to make the datagrid editable.

No Code required just a good idea of all the features of Visual Studio.
