Is it possible to use a DataAdapter table to perform an insert.
The DataAdapter table would be filled with data from an excel sheet and I would want to insert this data into a Sql Server table.

Example --
cmdInsert = New SqlCommand("Insert into authors select * from DataAdapter(table)")
conPubs.Open()
cmdInsert.ExecuteNonQuery()
 
You may be able to do this without a dataset:

Using SQL Server provider:

Insert into authors
select * from
OPENDATASOURCE(
'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Data Source=C:\MyWorkbook.xls;Extended Properties=Excel 8.0'
)...Table

Using Jet provider:

Insert into
[ODBC;Driver={SQL Server};
SERVER=MYSERVER;
DATABASE=pubs;
UID=****;Pwd=****;].authors
select * from table
