Question About SqlDataReader.GetString

Nov 3, 2004

In my database I have this code:


Do While sqlDataReader.Read()


lblTitle.InnerText = sqlDataReader.GetString(2)


Loop





And this will get my sql's 3rd column ( its #2 because its 0-indexed ), but I am throwing this error when I try to print this sqlDataReader.GetString(2) if this particular value is a int. How do I cast it to a String.





I have already done these two things:


sqlDataReader.GetString(2).ToString()


&


CStr(sqlDataReader.GetString(2))





????

Using SqlDataReader.GetString When Value In Database Might Be A NULL

Jun 8, 2007

I am currently using the following code to populate fields in a form  EditUserNotes.Text = EditUserReader.GetString(2); which works just fine (the datatype in the database is 'text') as long as the data stored in the database is not null.  If the data is null, I get the error: Data is Null. This method or property cannot be called on Null values. which is really annoying as there are times when the data stored in the database is legitimately NULLI can use the following code to fix the problem, but it seems less elegant  EditUserNotes.Text = EditUserReader.GetValue(2).ToString() is there really a difference between the GetString and the GetValue(x).ToString() methods or are they interchangeable?

Using ExecuteReader() And GetString()

Mar 3, 2008

Hi.
I'm trying to read data from a database. This is my code:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
connection.Open();SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, connection);
myReader = cmd.ExecuteReader();if (myReader.Read())
{
name1TextBox.Text = myReader.GetString(1);
addr1TextBox.Text = myReader.GetString(2);
code1TextBox.Text = myReader.GetString(5);
tel1TextBox.Text = myReader.GetString(6);
fax1TextBox.Text = myReader.GetString(7);
:
:
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The above code works fine until one of the GetString calls trys to return NULL (in this case myReader.GetString(5)).
In other words, this code will run through about 30 rows of data until it runs in to a NULL entry for one of the columns.
At that stage it's too late. I'm not allowed call GetString( ) on a NULL value.
Is there anyway I can test the column entry before calling GetString( ).
Regards (& thanks in advance)
Garrett

How I Can Use SqlDataReader?

Nov 29, 2007

Hi..
 Every time I want to read any record from data base I read it in dataset for example:SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(@"Data Source=localhost ;Initial Catalog=university ;Integrated Security=True");
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("select [User_AuthorityID] from users where [UserID]='" + TextBox1.Text + "' and [UserPassword]='" + TextBox2.Text + "' ", con);SqlDataAdapter adp = new SqlDataAdapter();
adp.SelectCommand = cmd;DataSet ds = new DataSet();
adp.Fill(ds, "UserID");foreach (DataRow dr in ds.Tables["UserID"].Rows)
{
user_type = dr[0].ToString();
Session.Add("User_AuthorityID", user_type);
.........
 Is there easier way to read data from data base?
How I can use SqlDataReader to do that?
 Thanks..

SqlDataReader Within Another SqlDataReader - Can It Be Done?

Jun 1, 2008

Hey All,
I have come across a situation with two tables, they are dynamic and the user can add and edit values in the tables so I need to build a dynamic display control. It is all based around an FAQ system I have built. The user can create new FAQ categories (that is one table) then create a new FAQ Question & Answer (that is the second table). The tables are linked by the category id. So now I am trying to display the FAQ section like so.
CATEGORY NAME
QuestionAnswerQuestionAnswerCATEGORY NAME
QuestionAnswerQuestionAnswerCATEGORY NAME
QuestionAnswerQuestionAnswer
So my idea was to run a loop within a loop. First loop the category name, then within the category name, loop a second time to grab all of the questions & answers within the category id captured from the first loops sql select statement, then proceed to loop the category name again and of course repeat the process until all loops are completed. However I am getting, and I kinda figured I would get an error about my SQLDataReader. Bellow is my code maybe some type of edit or different recommendation is needed. Any help will do, thanks!Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
'--- Database Connection ---Dim sConnStr As String = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("ConnectionString").ConnectionString
Dim cnBKPost As New SqlConnection(sConnStr)
'--- End DB Connection ----
'----- FAQ's -------
Dim sql As String = "SELECT category_id, category_name FROM faq_category ORDER BY category_name DESC"Dim cmd As New SqlCommand(sql, cnBKPost)
cnBKPost.Open()Dim reader As SqlDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
Dim str As New StringBuilder()
Dim catid As IntegerDo While reader.Read()
'--- Category Titles ----catid = reader("category_id")
str.Append("<h2>" & reader("category_name") & "</h2>")
'--- End Category Title ---
'--- Get FAQ's In Category ---
Dim sqlcat As String = "SELECT faq_question, faq_answer FROM tbl_faq WHERE faq_category = '" & catid & "'"Dim cmdcat As New SqlCommand(sqlcat, cnBKPost)
Dim readerfaq As SqlDataReader = cmdcat.ExecuteReader()Do While readerfaq.Read()
str.Append("<p><font style='font-size:12pt;font-color:#daa520;>'" & reader("faq_question") & "</font><br />")str.Append(reader("faq_answer") & "</p>")
str.Append("<br /><br /><br />")
Loop
readerfaq.Close()
'--- End Get FAQ's in Category ---
Loop
reader.Close()
cnBKPost.Close()Me.Literal1.Text = str.ToString()
End Sub
End Class

Using SqlDataReader

Jun 25, 2004

i'm using c# and SqlDataReader to simply retrieve data from one column of a database. problem is it's an integer i'm trying to retrieve, and so i'm trying to put it into an int variable, and i get the error "CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type 'object' to 'int'" . i've looked for an answer for about an hour and every example for the SqlDataReader that i can find deals with strings only or the examples are too complex for me to understand.

there must be an easy way to retrieve this data and put it into an integer! help...

my line of code that creates the error:

int intGuestNum = dtrSelectTotalSessions["online_numSessions"];

Rowcount And SQLDataReader

Aug 29, 2006

Hi, from what I can find, there isn't a way to get the number of rows returned from a SQLDataReader command. Is this correct? If so, is there a way around this? My SQLDataReader command is as follows:Dim commandInd As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter(strQueryCombined, connInd)Dim commandSQL As New SqlCommand("GetAssetList2", connStringSQL)Dim resultDS As New Data.DataSet()'// Fill the dataset with valuescommandInd.Fill(resultDS)'// Get the XML values of the dataset to send to SQL server and run a new queryDim strXML As String = resultDS.GetXml()Dim xmlFileList As SqlParameterDim strContainsClause As SqlParameter'// Create and execute the search against SQL ServerconnStringSQL.Open()commandSQL.CommandType = Data.CommandType.StoredProcedurecommandSQL.Parameters.Add("@xmlFileList", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 1000).Value = strXMLcommandSQL.Parameters.Add("@strContainsClause", Data.SqlDbType.VarChar, 1000).Value = strContainsConstructDim sqlReaderSource As SqlDataReader = commandSQL.ExecuteReader()results.DataSource = sqlReaderSourceresults.DataBind()connStringSQL.Close()And the stored procedure is such:DROP PROC dbo.GetAssetList2;GOCREATE PROC dbo.GetAssetList2(@xmlFileList varchar(1000),@strContainsClause varchar(1000))ASBEGINSET NOCOUNT ONDECLARE @intDocHandle intEXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @intDocHandle OUTPUT, @xmlFileListSELECT DISTINCTAssetsMaster.AssetMasterUID,SupportedFiles.AssetPath,FROM AssetsMaster, OPENXML (@intDocHandle, '/NewDataSet/Table',2) WITH (FILENAME varchar(256)) AS x,SupportedFilesWHEREAssetsMaster.AssetFileName = x.FILENAMEAND AssetsMaster.Extension = SupportedFiles.Extension UNIONSELECT DISTINCTAssetsMaster.AssetMasterUID,SupportedFiles.AssetPath,FROM AssetsMaster, OPENXML (@intDocHandle, '/NewDataSet/Table',2) WITH (FILENAME varchar(256)) AS x,SupportedFilesWHEREAssetsMaster.AssetFileName <> x.FILENAMEAND CONTAINS ((Description, Keywords), @strContainsClause)AND AssetsMaster.Extension = SupportedFiles.ExtensionORDER BY AssetsMaster.Downloads DESCEXEC sp_xml_removedocument @intDocHandle ENDGOHow can I access the number of rows returned by this stored procedure?Thanks,James

No More Data In A SqlDataReader?

Feb 16, 2007

How do I tell when there is no more data to read in a SQLDataReader?
For example, I have an open datareader that I pass into a function that MIGHT still have a valid row in it when it returns from the function. How do I tell?  I can't do a read() because then that current record will go away. I need to be able to tell if there is a current record without doing another read.
TIA,

SqlDataReader.GetOrdinal()

Jun 18, 2007

Say I have this SQL query running into an SqlDataReader select TaskName, TaskDescription from tblTasks where TaskID = 5 There are two different ways to get the data out of the reader (maybe more) TaskName.Text = Reader.GetString(0);andTaskName.Text = Reader.GetString(Reader.GetOrdinal("TaskName")); My question is, is there a major difference in terms of efficiency between these two?  The second one is definitely more robuts (in a situation where you are calling a stored procedure, and the stored procedure might change, etc) but the first one has fewer operations. Is the increase in robustness of the second one worth the potential performance hit, if any? Thank you, -Madrak

SQLDataReader Problem

Jan 4, 2008

Hello im fairly new to ASP.Net and have a problem with an Intranet Page I am creating. In this part of the page I want to retrive a value from an SQL Table based on criteria and then store it as a variable to be used elsewhere on my page. I have tried using the SQL Data reader to retrive the value but somewhere in my code I am going wrong. Can anyone advise me on this please? See code below
 My Visual Studio debugger has point out that there is a problem with my r = cmd.ExecuteReader() line
 Oh and the connection to my SQL database is opened further up the page from this code.
Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT top 1 OrderID FROM tblStationeryOrder WHERE ORDERMADEBY = '" & lstUsers.SelectedValue & "' ORDER BY OrderID DESC"Dim cmd As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand
cmd.CommandText = strSQLDim r As System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader
r = cmd.ExecuteReader()Do While r.Read()
Dim OrderID As Integer = r!OrderID
Exit Do

Heres my code:
 
     protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)    {        this.lblDate.Text = DateTime.Today.ToString("d");        string username;        username = Convert.ToString(Session["usr"]);        SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["csSecurity"].ConnectionString);        SqlDataReader rdr = null;         SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SELECT PROG_OFF FROM Logon_Table WHERE usr = " + username, conn);                         try                {                    conn.Open();                                         rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();                }

SqlDataReader And Tinyint

Apr 17, 2005

I have an SP that returns a result set that contains a tinyint.  My problem is that, when I try and access this value using GetInt16 (or 32), I get an error saying that "Specified cast is not valid".  TinyInt is 1 byte, or 8 bits.  GetInt16 'Gets the value of the specified column as a 16-bit unsigned integer'.  I am assuming that this is the root cause of my problem.  But, there doesn't seem to be a GetInt8 ?!  Any ideas?
Thanks, Martin

SqlDataReader + Stored Procedure

Feb 28, 2007

I am trying to access data using this code:
SqlCommand myCommand = new SqlCommand("myStoredProcedure", myConnection);
myCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
myCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@myID", SqlDbType.Int));
myCommand.Parameters["@myID"].Value = myIDValue;
myConnection.Open();
myDataReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
myTextBox.Text = myDataReader["myColumn"].ToString();
myDataReader.Close();
myConnection.Close();
I get "data reader has no data" error.
A problem with the parameter?
The stored procedure returns a row when executed from the database explorer.
 I have used datasets and table adapters up to now as in the data access tutorial on this site
Any Ideas?
 
Thanks

Mapping Of Columns In SqlDataReader

Hi,I use SqlDataReader to read one row from database and than set some properties to values retrieved like this:string myString = myReader.GetValue(0) // this sets myString to first value in a rowIf, however, I change order of columns returned by stored procedure myString would be set to wrong value. Is there a way to do something like this: string myString = myReader.GetValue["ColumnName"];

NULLReferenceException From SqlDataReader.GetValue()

Aug 23, 2007

I am getting a random exception coming out of ADO.NET's SqlDataReader that I can't seem to track down for the life of me. I have put SQL Server and IIS under heavy load, with neither giving me the exceptions except occasionally (they come when there is no load as well). Web Site is built in VS2005 using .NET 2.0.
Basically, I have a web page that caches a few tables from a SQL database (about 10 tables are loaded into cache from this page) and the error can come from any of the tables while they are being read from the database randomly. I had assumed it was possible that a timeout was occuring while reading the data but from what the brief results google shows, there would be a different exception thrown it a timeout had occured.
 Here is the exception that is showing up:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.ReadColumnHeader(Int32 i)   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.ReadColumn(Int32 i, Boolean setTimeout)   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.GetValueInternal(Int32 i)   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.GetValue(Int32 i)   at Library.Data.DataProxy.ExecuteStoredProcedure(ArrayList& returnValues, TypeFactory factory)
I got the following exception once from the same section of code as well:
System.InvalidOperationException: Invalid attempt to FieldCount when reader is closed.   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.get_FieldCount()   at Library.Data.DataProxy.ExecuteStoredProcedure(ArrayList& returnValues, TypeFactory factory)

Sqldatareader Within A Loop From Another Reader?

SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(ConnectionString);

myReader.Close();

// end the xml document and close
writer.WriteEndElement();
writer.WriteEndDocument();
writer.Close();
}

finally
{
myConnection.Close();
}I've gotten the following two errors:There is already an open DataReader associated with this Command which must be closed first.And a build error:Error29The type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader' has no constructors defined Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

[Almost Resolved] SqlDataReader Vs. DataSets

Feb 1, 2008

Hi,
I am pretty new to harcore ASP.NET and .NET in general but I know the basics of the language and stuff like that. Basically I used to be a hardcore object pascal Delphi developer doing Windows Applications but have now moved to .NET world. The reason I posted this question here is I couldn't find any other specific place to ask so here it goes.
To get me started with good programming source and practices I downloaded the ASP.NET TimeTracker Starter Kit and after some modificaion in connection string (using SQL 2005 Developer edition not the Express one) I have managed to make it work. Things done in there are pretty interesting way by using a delegate to retrieve data and present it using databound controls.
As much simple as it sounds I am more of a fan of not using too many databound controls except in dropdown box, list box and stuff like that. So basically I need to develop DataAccessLayer (DAL) in such a way that it's useful for both Windows and Web application. So with my research I found that I should be using DataSets in the DAL because they are serializable and thatz what Web Applications & Services love over using SqlDataReader. Other advantage of using DataSet is to use ForEach syntex over While Loop in SqlDataReaders. So below is some code I extracted from the TimeTracker Starter Kit to get me started.
I also noticed that the return result is a list array of certain object, in this case Category. So does it mean that it can be used in frontend using ForEach syntex? How can I convert the code below to use DataSets over SqlDataReader?  Private Delegate Sub TGenerateListFromReader(Of T)(ByVal returnData As SqlDataReader, ByRef tempList As List(Of T))

Public Overrides Function GetAllCategories() As List(Of Category)
Dim sqlCmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand()
SetCommandType(sqlCmd, CommandType.StoredProcedure, SP_CATEGORY_GETALLCATEGORIES)

Dim categoryList As New List(Of Category)()
TExecuteReaderCmd(Of Category)(sqlCmd, AddressOf TGenerateCategoryListFromReader(Of Category), categoryList)

Return categoryList
End Function

Public Overrides Function GetCategoryByCategoryId(ByVal Id As Integer) As Category
If Id <= DefaultValues.GetCategoryIdMinValue() Then
Throw New ArgumentOutOfRangeException("Id")
End If

Dim sqlCmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand()
AddParamToSQLCmd(sqlCmd, "@CategoryId", SqlDbType.Int, 0, ParameterDirection.Input, Id)
SetCommandType(sqlCmd, CommandType.StoredProcedure, SP_CATEGORY_GETCATEGORYBYID)

Dim categoryList As New List(Of Category)()
TExecuteReaderCmd(Of Category)(sqlCmd, AddressOf TGenerateCategoryListFromReader(Of Category), categoryList)

If categoryList.Count > 0 Then
Return categoryList(0)
Else
Return Nothing
End If
End Function

Private Sub TGenerateCategoryListFromReader(Of T)(ByVal returnData As SqlDataReader, ByRef categoryList As List(Of Category))
Do While returnData.Read()

Dim actualDuration As Decimal = 0
If Not returnData("CategoryActualDuration") Is DBNull.Value Then
actualDuration = Convert.ToDecimal(returnData("CategoryActualDuration"))
End If

Dim category As Category = New Category(CStr(returnData("CategoryAbbreviation")), actualDuration, _
CInt(returnData("CategoryId")), CDec(returnData("CategoryEstimateDuration")), CStr(returnData("CategoryName")), _
CInt(returnData("ProjectId")))
categoryList.Add(category)
Loop
End Sub
Hope this makes sense. Sorry if I have posted this in a wrong section..!
Cheers,Nirav

SqlDataReader: Accessing Columns With The Same Name!

May 12, 2008

Hi there
 I am using an SqlDataReader to read and write to my back end database and i have got it to work using the code: myDataReader["myFieldName"].ToString();
However, when i have two fields of the same name (e.g a "Surname" belonging to students in a table, and "Surname" belonging to teachers in a different table), I can't Pick up the two different fields even though i have given aliases.
I don't really want to access these fields using an integer as the index as this will make management in the future difficult.
 as a side note, i have to use aliases as i access the teachers table a number of different times to specify who the tutors are and who teachers of all their different subjects are.
thanks
pete

Query Problem Using Sqldatareader

Mar 14, 2004

I'm having some trouble reading data from a query. This has to do with a previous posting here:view post 504339

I have corrected that problem but I now only get the response "wrong password" even though the right password is entered. Here is the new code for the click subrouthine. You will notice two different scenarios with one commented out. Both do not work. I created label1 to display the password and it is show correctly. What am I doing wrong?

Private Sub btnSubmit_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnSubmit.Click
Dim test As String
SqlConnection1.Open()
SqlCommand1.Parameters.Item("@email").Value = txtUsername.Text
Dim dr As SqlDataReader = SqlCommand1.ExecuteReader
If dr.Read() Then
test = CStr(dr("pass"))
Label1.Text = test
'If dr("pass").ToString = txtPassword.Text Then
'lblMessage.Text = "login successful"
'Else
' lblMessage.Text = "Wrong password"
'End If
If String.Compare("test", "txtPassword.text") = 0 Then
lblMessage.Text = "login successful"
Else
lblMessage.Text = "Wrong Password"
End If
Else
lblMessage.Text = "Please register"
End If
dr.Close()
SqlConnection1.Close()
End Sub

SqlDataReader Or Output Parameters?

Oct 10, 2005

Hi all,Is there a data transfer difference between returning a datareader that only has one row or using output parameters?  For instance, I have a login page that shows the last login, member since, display level, number of file views, etc.  Currently I am returning a datareader that reads one row and assigns this data to labels.  But would it be quicker to use OUTPUT parameters instead of using a dataread and just get the values from the command object?ThanksJosh
