dAdapter.FillSchema vs dAdapter.Fill with dataset.clear?

[Guest]

Hello,

I want to use a dataAdapter to insert rows into a table on a sql server DB.
I understand that the DataAdapter will automatically handle concurrency
issues. So first I have to get a table to insert a row into. I have been
doing this:

da.SelectCommand = New SqlCommand("Select * from tbl1", conn)
da.FillSchema(ds, SchemaType.Source, "tbl1")
....
my other method was this:

da.SelectCommand = New SqlCommand("Select * from tbl1", conn)
da.Fill(ds, "tbl1")
ds.Clear

I read one post of someone who said that the Fillschema method used more
resource than the Fill method. But I am thinking, what if I already have a
ton of rows in the table? I only need the schema of the table to insert a
new row into. Any suggestions appreciated which method is the best practice
- or if neither method above is best practice - what would be a best practice
method?

Thanks,
Rich

Can you elaborate on what exactly you need to accomplish?

Also is tbl1 in the same SQL server db that you are wanting to insert
rows into?

Thanks,
