Examples

The following example creates a SqlConnection, a SqlCommand, and a SqlDataReader. The example reads through the data, writing it to the console. Finally, the example closes the SqlDataReader and then the SqlConnection as it exits the Using code blocks.

using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.Data.SqlClient;


namespace SqlCommandCS
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            string str = "Data Source=(local);Initial Catalog=Northwind;"
                + "Integrated Security=SSPI";
            ReadOrderData(str);

        }

        private static void ReadOrderData(string connectionString)
        {
            string queryString =
                "SELECT OrderID, CustomerID FROM dbo.Orders;";
            using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(
                       connectionString))
            {
                SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(
                    queryString, connection);
                connection.Open();
                using (SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader())
                {
                    while (reader.Read())
                    {
                        Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}, {1}",
                            reader[0], reader[1]));
                    }
                }
            }
        }

The following sample shows how to create and execute different types of SqlCommand objects.

First you must create the sample database, by executing the following script:

Remarks

When an instance of SqlCommand is created, the read/write properties are set to their initial values. For a list of these values, see the SqlCommand constructor.

SqlCommand features the following methods for executing commands at a SQL Server database:

Item Description
BeginExecuteNonQuery Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this SqlCommand, generally executing commands such as INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and SET statements. Each call to BeginExecuteNonQuery must be paired with a call to EndExecuteNonQuery which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread.
BeginExecuteReader Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this SqlCommand and retrieves one or more results sets from the server. Each call to BeginExecuteReader must be paired with a call to EndExecuteReader which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread.
BeginExecuteXmlReader Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this SqlCommand. Each call to BeginExecuteXmlReader must be paired with a call to EndExecuteXmlReader, which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread, and returns an XmlReader object.
ExecuteReader Executes commands that return rows. For increased performance, ExecuteReader invokes commands using the Transact-SQL sp_executesql system stored procedure. Therefore, ExecuteReader might not have the effect that you want if used to execute commands such as Transact-SQL SET statements.
ExecuteNonQuery Executes commands such as Transact-SQL INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and SET statements.
ExecuteScalar Retrieves a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a database.
ExecuteXmlReader Sends the CommandText to the Connection and builds an XmlReader object.

You can reset the CommandText property and reuse the SqlCommand object. However, you must close the SqlDataReader before you can execute a new or previous command.

If a SqlException is generated by the method executing a SqlCommand, the SqlConnection remains open when the severity level is 19 or less. When the severity level is 20 or greater, the server ordinarily closes the SqlConnection. However, the user can reopen the connection and continue.

Note

Nameless, also called ordinal, parameters are not supported by the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server.

Constructors

RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvidersOnCommand(IDictionary<String,SqlColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvider>)

Registers the encryption key store providers on the SqlCommand instance. If this function has been called, any providers registered using the RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProviders(IDictionary<String,SqlColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvider>) or RegisterColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvidersOnConnection(IDictionary<String,SqlColumnEncryptionKeyStoreProvider>) methods will be ignored. This function can be called more than once. This does shallow copying of the dictionary so that the app cannot alter the custom provider list once it has been set.

ResetCommandTimeout()

Resets the CommandTimeout property to its default value.
