String UpdateQuery = "Update hrEmpDetails set first_name='" + first_name + "', middle_name='" + middle_name + "',last_name='" + last_name + "',hrgroup_id=" + hrgroup_id + ",hrdesignation_id=" + hrdesignation_id + " ,email_id='" + email_id + "',mobile_no='" + mobile_no + "',gender='" + gender + "',login='" + login + "',synopsis='" + synopsis + "' where id =" + hid + ";";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(UpdateQuery, con);

cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();

BindDataToGridView();

Here hrEmpDetails is the table name and i want to update the emp_group and emp_designation which is in the other table . 

The hrgroup_id and hrdesignation_id provide id's for emp_group and emp_designation  .  hrgroup_id and hrdesignation_id is in table hrEmpDetails
