Insert date value into sql database in C#

I have a problem when trying to insert the value of "datetimepicker" into column of type "date" 

cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into PIECE_D_IDENDITE VALUES('" + textBox4.Text + "','" + dateTimePicker2.Value + "','" + textBox7.Text + "','" + comboBox1.SelectedValue + "');insert into PERSONNE (ID_CARTE,PRENOM_PERSONNE,NOM_PERSONNE,PROFESSION_PERSONNE,TEL_PERSONNE,ADRESSE_PERSONNE,DATE_NAIS_PERSONNE)values('" + textBox4.Text + "','" + textBox1.Text + "','" + textBox2.Text + "','" + textBox8.Text + "','" + textBox10.Text + "','" + textBox9.Text + "','" + dateTimePicker1.Value + "')", cn);
                cn.Open();
                cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                MessageBox.Show("success!");

So the problem is when I choose the day's number greatest than 12 (for exemple 13/10/2016) this error appear => "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string."

You must always use parameterized SQL, and do no conversion to string especially for Date\DateTimes.

SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(@"insert into PIECE_D_IDENDITE VALUES 
     (@v1, @v2, @v3, @v4);
insert into PERSONNE 
(ID_CARTE,PRENOM_PERSONNE,NOM_PERSONNE,
 PROFESSION_PERSONNE,TEL_PERSONNE,
 ADRESSE_PERSONNE,DATE_NAIS_PERSONNE)
values
(@ID_CARTE,@PRENOM_PERSONNE,@NOM_PERSONNE,
 @PROFESSION_PERSONNE,@TEL_PERSONNE,
 @ADRESSE_PERSONNE,@DATE_NAIS_PERSONNE);", cn);


cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@v1", textBox4.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@v2", dateTimePicker2.Value);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@v3", textBox7.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@v4", comboBox1.SelectedValue);

cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ID_CARTE", textBox4.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PRENOM_PERSONNE", textBox1.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@NOM_PERSONNE", textBox2.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PROFESSION_PERSONNE", textBox8.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@TEL_PERSONNE", textBox10.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ADRESSE_PERSONNE", textBox9.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DATE_NAIS_PERSONNE", dateTimePicker1.Value);

cn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MessageBox.Show("success!");

In first insert you are not specifying the field names. That would work but is depends on the order of the fields and dangerous IMHO (and I assumed all the fields other than dates were of type string, if not, convert them to their corresponding types).

This problem is related to the local date configuration of your forms/server and the value returned.

If the local date format is MM/DD/YYY and you do not transform before call the procedure, the Day 13 will be stored into the MM format of the date into the database.

I have no clue about your MySQL Configuration or Winform configuration, but I am pretty sure that this problems is a different date format on client/server.
