Answer 1

OleDbCommand(@"insert into group(

You have some typos:

• there should be a space between the table name and your open paren, like this : group (groupid
• .

Answer 2

Wild guess, but try to type [group] instead of just group. I assume the group word is reserved because of the "GROUP BY" clause.

Answer 3

Ahhh MS Access with your exceedingly stupid naming allowances, from allowing spaces in table names to permitting use of SQL keywords for field names.

GROUP is a SQL reserved word. If you have the chance, I highly recommend you rename it. That said, if you can't rename it, surround it with square brackets in the query [group].
