I'm trying to display the SQL query result in a label but it's not showing. This is my code:
string result = "SELECT ACTIVE FROM [dbo].[test] WHERE ID = '" + ID.Text + "' ";
SqlCommand showresult = new SqlCommand(result, conn);
conn.Open();
showresult.ExecuteNonQuery();
string actresult = ((string)showresult.ExecuteScalar());
ResultLabel.Text = actresult;
conn.Close();
Need help please. Thanks!
Try this one.
string result = "SELECT ACTIVE FROM [dbo].[test] WHERE ID = '" + ID.Text + "' ";
SqlCommand showresult = new SqlCommand(result, conn);
conn.Open();
ResultLabel.Text = showresult.ExecuteScalar().ToString();
conn.Close();
Is there a typo in there? You have two calls to the database:
showresult.ExecuteNonQuery();
This won't return a value and I'm not sure why you would have it there
string actresult = ((string)shresult.ExecuteScalar());
Unless you have a shresult variable, this query should error. What is the shresult variable?
Use SqlParameter
to filter the result and call ExecuteScalar()
or ExecuteReader()
method.
string result = "SELECT ACTIVE FROM [dbo].[test] WHERE ID=@ID";
SqlCommand showresult = new SqlCommand(result, conn);
// If ID is int type
showresult.Parameters.Add("@ID",SqlDbType.Int).Value=ID.Txt;
// If ID is Varchar then
//showresult.Parameters.Add("@ID",SqlDbType.VarChar,10).Value=ID.Txt;
conn.Open();
string actresult = (string)showresult.ExecuteScalar();
conn.Close();
if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(actresult))
ResultLabel.Text = actresult;
else
ResultLabel.Text="Not found";
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
{
string result = "SELECT ACTIVE FROM [dbo].[test] WHERE ID = @id";
SqlCommand showresult = new SqlCommand(result, conn);
showresult.Parameters.AddWithValue("id", ID.Text);
conn.Open();
ResultLabel.Text = showresult.ExecuteScalar().ToString();
conn.Close();
}
This will dispose the connection and has no string concatenation in the query.
conn.Open();
string result = "SELECT ACTIVE FROM test WHERE ID = '" + ID.Text + "' ";
SqlCommand showresult = new SqlCommand(result, conn);
showresult.ExecuteNonQuery();
int actresult = ((int)showresult.ExecuteScalar());
ResultLabel.Text = actresult.Tostring();
conn.Close();
