Connected Mode in ADO.Net using C# with example
In Connected mode in ADO.NET architecture
connection must be open using open method to access data from database and make
connection alive while we perform insert, update, delete and search operation
and after retrieve data from database connection must be close using close
method.
In Connected Mode ADO.NET, DataReader is used to retrieve data from
database and it can hold only single table data while in Disconnected ModeADO.NET, Dataset is used to hold multiple table data.So this is the
limitation of Connected Mode ADO.NET. Because when you constantly trips to the
database for any insert, update, delete and search operation you wish to do.
This creates more traffic to the database.

Example:-
Create a Table in Database and windows form in visual studio having
following fields as in screenshot:
using
System;
using
System.Collections.Generic;
using
System.ComponentModel;
using
System.Data;
using
System.Drawing;
using
System.Linq;
using
System.Text;
using
System.Threading.Tasks;
using
System.Windows.Forms;
//use below namespace to connect with ADO.Net
using
System.Data.SqlClient;
namespace
WindowsFormsApplication1
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
// Connected Mode ADO.Net Save button
coding to Save data into Database Table.
