The formatting string can be any literal string and usually includes a placeholder for the field's value. For example, in the formatting string "Item Value: {0}", the field's value is substituted for the {0} placeholder when the string is displayed in the BoundField object. The rest of the formatting string is displayed as literal text.

The placeholder consists of two parts, separated by a colon and wrapped in braces, in the form {A : Bxx}. The value before the colon (A in the general example) specifies the field value's index in a zero-based list of parameters.

1. use an AccessDataSource control on your page, including an InsertCommand, establishing ControlParameters tied to your text boxes; then code the button to execute the AccessDataSource control's .Insert() method...
2. create a custom class that handles your data access; in it, create an .Insert() method of your own that accepts two parameters; use OleDbConnection, OleDbCommand, and OleDbParameter classes to issue the SQL INSERT statement to your database; then code the button to execute the .Insert() method in your custom class...
3. create the custom class as before, then use an ObjectDataSource on your page with the associated class. In your button's code, execute the .Insert() method on the ObjectDataSource...
4. create a custom class and ObjectDataSource as before, and substitute for your existing textboxes/button a FormView or DetailsView control. Associate the FormView/DetailsView to your ObjectDataSource through the DataSourceID property, and let it handle all the data access for you...
5. for that matter, you could associate an AccessDataSource to a FormView or DetailsView as well, and not use a custom class (or coding at all)...
