where you want row to be added? in database or in datagrid view?

sorry I did not clarify I want the row added in the database

its very risky to add row in database on each click of combobox
just imaging what would happen if user clicks the combobox multiple times then table would have multiple entries. isn't it? The best way to achieve this scenario is add a "Update/SAVE" button and write code on button click event.

So user will add as much entries in to data grid view as they want and click on button to save the value to the database

thank you but could I use the combobox to pick what table I wanted to fill and then use the update/save to add the data. I want to use the datagrid to add the same data to 2 tables
