Hi,

Based on my understanding, you want to save the text into the Sql database when the user clicks the button in your asp.net application. If I have misunderstood you, please feel free to let me know.

We can use the SqlDataSource control to do so with little code. If so, we just need to configure this control in the wizard. For more information, seehttp://www.asp.net/learn/data-access/

I hope this helps.
