   scanf("%d",&choice);
   switch(choice)

      case 1:printf("\nEnter the data:");
             scanf("%d",&data);
             insert(root,data);   break;
      case 2:printf("\nPreorder traversal:\n");
             preorder(root); break;
      default:exit(0);
   }
   }
   getch();
   return 0;
}

the code is not creating the tree properly, even when i am inserting the second time it prints "1st time".Can anyone please tell me what is wrong??

Thanks in advance.

insert() returns a value, which you're ignoring.
