            conn = new SqlConnection();
            string connString = @"Data      Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\Cost.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True";

            var addpTA = new Hashtable();
            addpTA.Add("@type", txtType.Text);
            addpTA.Add("@amount", txtAmount.Text);
            Connect(insert, addpTA);
        }
    }

You didn’t connected the command to the connection.

cmd.Connection = conn;

And after executing the command you should close it.

conn.Close();
