Question

Is it possible to add from a single textbox to different tables in a database.

I have a addclub webform and i would like to add clubname to a number of different tables.

The following is my current code that i have.

 cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into youthclublist(youthclubname, description, address1, address2, county, postcode, email, phone) values ('" + youthclubname.Text + "', '" + description.Text + "','" + address1.Text + "','" + address2.Text + "', '" + county.Text + "', '" + postcode.Text + "', '" + email.Text + "', '" + phone.Text + "')", connection);

Answer 1

It is possible yes but consider my point below:

1. Think about normal form, it should be possible to design the database so that you only need to alter it on one place. If you have to change the name in several places it is likely not following normal form and the database could be redesigned.
2. The way you are doing the update is not advisable, have a look into SQLInjection attacks as the above code is vulnerable to this. Using parameters in the SQLCommand rather than creating a big string is a better way to do this from a security and performance point.

Hope I have not been too negative
