Good morning, I'm developing a code that can get me out of my database in sql, the AVG of a certain column.
The problem is that I'm not getting it, I think the problem is the query but I do not know how to solve it.
I need help, thank you.
Here is the code:
String connectionString =
"Data Source=localhost;" +
"Initial Catalog=DB_SACC;" +
"User id=sa;" +
"Password=1234;";
SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
string textt = " USE [DB_SACC] SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) FROM t_pagamentos";
cmd.CommandText = textt;
connection.Open();
cmd.Connection = connection;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
if (textt == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("nothing");
}
else
{
TextBox3.Text = textt;
}
use ExecuteScalar if you request a single value from your database - ExecuteNonQuery returns just the number of affected rows which is used in update / insert statements
USE [DB_SACC] is not required in your query since you define the "Initial Catalog=DB_SACC;"
add using to avoid open connections
Code:
string connectionString = "Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=DB_SACC;User id=sa;Password=1234;";
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
{
string textt = "SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) FROM t_pagamentos";
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(textt, connection))
{
connection.Open();
var result = cmd.ExecuteScalar(); //write the result into a variable
if (result == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("nothing");
}
else
{
TextBox3.Text = result.ToString();
}
}
}
Use cmd.ExecuteScalar() method instead:
decimal average = (decimal) cmd.ExecuteScalar();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); only returns the number of rows effected where as what you want is to read the result set of SELECT statement.
I would also get rid of USE [DB_SACC] from your SELECT statement since you are defining the database name in your connection string.
EDIT
Your code should look like this:
string textt = "SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) FROM t_pagamentos";
cmd.CommandText = textt;
connection.Open();
cmd.Connection = connection;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
decimal average = (decimal) cmd.ExecuteScalar();
if (textt == null)
{
MessageBox.Show("nothing");
}
else
{
TextBox3.Text = average.ToString();
}
EDIT 2:
try
{
string textt = "SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) FROM t_pagamentos";
cmd.CommandText = textt;
connection.Open();
cmd.Connection = connection;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
decimal average = (decimal)cmd.ExecuteScalar();
TextBox3.Text = average.ToString();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
// log your exception here...
MessageBox.Show("nothing");
}
EDIT 3:
In the light of your recent comments try this
string connectionString = "Data Source=localhost; Initial Catalog=DB_SACC; User id=sa Password=1234;";
decimal? average;
try
{
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
{
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand())
{
string textt = "SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) AS 'AVG_DIVIDA' FROM t_pagamentos";
cmd.CommandText = textt;
connection.Open();
cmd.Connection = connection;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
using (DataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
while (reader.Read())
{
average = decimal.parse(reader["AVG_DIVIDA"].ToString());
break;
}
}
}
}
TextBox3.Text = average.HasValue ? average.ToString() : "Unknown error occurred";
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show("Unable to retrieve the average, reason: " + ex.Message);
}
Note: Using DataReader to get just single value from database is not preferred. I am proposing this because of the error you mentioned in the comments.
If you are getting any SQL Exception then try to run this statement on SQL Server as stand alone test.
USE DB_SACC
GO
SELECT AVG (Total_Divida) AS 'AVG_DIVIDA' FROM t_pagamentos
GO
If you still encounter any error while executing T-SQL Statement then please post that as another question.

I'm displaying some data from the database into textboxes on my windows form and I have to add something else but it depends on the account type (that information is saved on my Databse). Meaning it is either DM (domestic) or CM(comercial). I want for it to charge an extra amount if it's CM.
I would appreciate any help, thank you.
OracleDataReader myReader = null;
OracleCommand myCommand = new OracleCommand("SELECT SUM(IMPORTE) AS corriente FROM MOVIMIENTOS WHERE CUENTA='"+txtIngreseCuenta3.Text + "'AND CONCEPTO=10", connectionString);
myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader();
while (myReader.Read())
{
txtCorriente.Text = (myReader["corriente"].ToString());
}
I'm using this code to display into the textbox but I want it to get the account type from another table and IF it's CM then add a certain amount into a textbox.
In your case I suggest that you use Execute Scalar instead of reader since you are returning only one value from the database. but in your case if you want this code to work you need to Cast the returned value into the correct dot net type and then populate the TextBox.
Example Using ExecuteReader
//txtCorriente.Text = ((int)myReader["corriente"]).ToString();
private static void CreateCommand(string queryString,
string connectionString)
{
using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(
connectionString))
{
connection.Open();
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(queryString, connection);
SqlDataReader reader = command.ExecuteReader();
while (reader.Read())
{
txtCorriente.Text = ((int)reader["corriente"]).ToString();
txtAnother.Text = ((decimal)reader["another"]).ToString();
Console.WriteLine(String.Format("{0}", reader[0]));
}
}
}
Example Using ExecuteScalar
static public int AddProductCategory(string newName, string connString)
{
Int32 newProdID = 0;
string sql =
"INSERT INTO Production.ProductCategory (Name) VALUES (#Name); "
+ "SELECT CAST(scope_identity() AS int)";
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connString))
{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#Name", SqlDbType.VarChar);
cmd.Parameters["#name"].Value = newName;
try
{
conn.Open();
newProdID = (Int32)cmd.ExecuteScalar();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
}
return (int)newProdID;
}

Hi all, This is my code and also there are more that ı didn't show,I recorded data to sql server. This code block(pointed with arrow) shows all sql server data and ı want to see only last data (recorded to sql server) in console. But ı could't find any answer. Please help.**
In this line
command.CommandText= "select * from windowsserv";
you can use some SQL Filters and Ordering, like: (This will return last 10 register based on a date filter.. now you need to know what range your (last data) has been recorded to get exactly what you need.
Replace (date_column) with a column in your table who have this kind of data.
select top 10 * from windowsserv where (date_column) between '2017-09-12 00:00:00' and '2017-09-13 00:00:00' order by (date_column) DESC
Then in your code you will have something like this:
SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand();
command.CommandText = "select * from select top 10 * from windowsserv where (date_column) between \'2017-09-12 00:00:00\' and \'2017-09-13 00:00:00\' order by (date_column) DESC";
You can improve your code as well doing this:
using (SqlConnection connection = GetConnection.GetConnectionObject())
{
//TODO parametreleri command.parameters yoluyla alsın
var command = new SqlCommand
{
CommandText = "select * from windowsserv",
Connection = connection
};
if (connection.State != ConnectionState.Open)
connection.Open();
Console.WriteLine("Connection opened");
var rdr = command.ExecuteReader();
while (rdr.Read())
{
Console.WriteLine(rdr[0] + "--" + rdr[1]);
}
}
try changing your while loop to.
bool isLast = rdr.Read();
while(isLast)
{
string firstCol = rdr[0].ToString();
string secondCol = rdr[1].ToString();
isLast = rdr.Read();
if(!isLast)
{
Console.WriteLine(firstCol+"--"+secondCol);
break;
}
}
How do I go about setting a MySQL query and parameters based on a condition?
I want different queries based on 'questionSource' as shown below.
However, in my code below, 'cmd' does not exist in the current context.
Alternatively, I could have two different functions for each condition and call the necessary function as required but I imagine there must be a way to have conditions within a connection.
//validation checks
else
{
string connStr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection(connStr);
string questionSource = Session["QuestionSource"].ToString();
string cmdText = "";
if (questionSource.Equals("S"))
{
cmdText += #"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM questions Q
JOIN users U
ON Q.author_id=U.user_id
WHERE approved='Y'
AND role=1
AND module_id=#ModuleID";
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand(cmdText, conn);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#ModuleID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#ModuleID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["TestModuleID"]);
}
else if (questionSource.Equals("U"))
{
cmdText += "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM questions WHERE approved='Y' AND module_id=#ModuleID AND author_id=#AuthorID;";
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand(cmdText, conn);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#ModuleID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#ModuleID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["TestModuleID"]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#AuthorID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#AuthorID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["UserID"]);
}
int noOfQuestionsAvailable = 0;
int noOfQuestionsWanted = Convert.ToInt32(ddlNoOfQuestions.SelectedValue);
try
{
conn.Open();
noOfQuestionsAvailable = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
if (noOfQuestionsAvailable < noOfQuestionsWanted)
{
lblError.Text = "There are not enough questions available to create a test.";
}
else
{
Session["TestName"] = txtName.Text;
Session["NoOfQuestions"] = ddlNoOfQuestions.SelectedValue;
Session["QuestionSource"] = rblQuestionSource.SelectedValue;
Session["TestModuleID"] = ddlModules.SelectedValue;
Response.Redirect("~/create_test_b.aspx");
}
}
catch
{
lblError.Text = "Database connection error - failed to get module details.";
}
finally
{
conn.Close();
}
}
declare cmd before if
MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand("",connStr);
and in each part of if
cmd.CommandText=cmdText;
other suggestion: add
cmd.Parameters.Add("#ModuleID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#ModuleID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["TestModuleID"]);
always before if because it is used in the same way in if and else part
You just have to move the declaration of the cmd outside the if block:
//validation checks
else
{
string connStr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection(connStr);
string questionSource = Session["QuestionSource"].ToString();
string cmdText = "";
MySqlCommand cmd; // <-- here
if (questionSource.Equals("S"))
{
cmdText += #"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM questions Q
JOIN users U
ON Q.author_id=U.user_id
WHERE approved='Y'
AND role=1
AND module_id=#ModuleID";
cmd = new MySqlCommand(cmdText, conn); // remove MySqlCommand here
cmd.Parameters.Add("#ModuleID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#ModuleID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["TestModuleID"]);
}
else if (questionSource.Equals("U"))
{
cmdText += "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM questions WHERE approved='Y' AND module_id=#ModuleID AND author_id=#AuthorID;";
cmd = new MySqlCommand(cmdText, conn); // remove MySqlCommand here
cmd.Parameters.Add("#ModuleID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#ModuleID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["TestModuleID"]);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#AuthorID", MySqlDbType.Int32);
cmd.Parameters["#AuthorID"].Value = Convert.ToInt32(Session["UserID"]);
}
int noOfQuestionsAvailable = 0;
int noOfQuestionsWanted = Convert.ToInt32(ddlNoOfQuestions.SelectedValue);
try
{
conn.Open();
noOfQuestionsAvailable = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
if (noOfQuestionsAvailable < noOfQuestionsWanted)
{
lblError.Text = "There are not enough questions available to create a test.";
}
else
{
Session["TestName"] = txtName.Text;
Session["NoOfQuestions"] = ddlNoOfQuestions.SelectedValue;
Session["QuestionSource"] = rblQuestionSource.SelectedValue;
Session["TestModuleID"] = ddlModules.SelectedValue;
Response.Redirect("~/create_test_b.aspx");
}
}
catch
{
lblError.Text = "Database connection error - failed to get module details.";
}
finally
{
conn.Close();
}
}
Just move the declaration of the MySqlCommand outside the if/else blocks so you could use it in the final try where you execute the command
//validation checks
else
{
string connStr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["myConnectionString"].ConnectionString;
using(MySqlConnection conn = new MySqlConnection(connStr))
using(MySqlCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
// Don't need to associate the command to the connection
// Already done by the CreateCommand above, just need to set
// the parameters and the command text
if (questionSource.Equals("S"))
{
cmdText = #"....."
cmd.CommandText = cmdText;
....
}
else if (questionSource.Equals("U"))
{
cmdText = "........."
cmd.CommandText = cmdText;
....
}
try
{
conn.Open();
noOfQuestionsAvailable = Convert.ToInt32(cmd.ExecuteScalar());
....
}
}
}
Notice also that you should use the using statement to be sure that your connection and your command are propertly closed and disposed.
I've been trawling through pages and pages on the internet for days now trying different approaches and I'm still not sure how I should be doing this.
On my third InsertCommand, I'd like to reference a column on the other 2 tables.
// Populate a DataSet from multiple Tables... Works fine
sqlDA = new SqlDataAdapter();
sqlDA.SelectCommand = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM hardware", sqlConn);
sqlDA.Fill(ds, "Hardware");
sqlDA.SelectCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM software";
sqlDA.Fill(ds, "Software");
sqlDA.SelectCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM join_hardware_software";
sqlDA.Fill(ds, "HS Join");
// After DataSet has been changed, perform an Insert on relevant tables...
updatedDs = ds.GetChanges();
SqlCommand DAInsertCommand = new SqlCommand();
DAInsertCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO hardware (host, model, serial) VALUES (#host, #model, #serial)";
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#host", null).SourceColumn = "host";
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#model", null).SourceColumn = "model";
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#serial", null).SourceColumn = "serial";
sqlDA.InsertCommand = DAInsertCommand;
sqlDA.Update(updatedDs, "Hardware"); // Works Fine
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.Clear(); // Clear parameters set above
DAInsertCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO software (description) VALUES (#software)";
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#software", null).SourceColumn = "description";
sqlDA.InsertCommand = DAInsertCommand;
sqlDA.Update(updatedDs, "Software"); // Works Fine
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.Clear(); // Clear parameters set above
DAInsertCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO join_hardware_software (hardware_id, software_id) VALUES (#hardware_id, #software_id)";
// *****
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#hardware_id", null).SourceColumn = "?"; // I want to set this to be set to my 'hardware' table to the 'id' column.
DAInsertCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("#software_id", null).SourceColumn = "?"; // I want to set this to be set to my 'software' table to the 'id' column.
// *****
sqlDA.InsertCommand = DAInsertCommand;
sqlDA.Update(updatedDs, "HS Join");
Could somebody please tell me where I am going wrong and how I could potentially overcome this? Many thanks! :)
With regards to your comments this seems to be one of those occasions where if you and I were sat next to each other we'd get this sorted but it's a bit tricky.
This is code I've used when working with SqlConnection and SqlCommand. There might be stuff here that would help you.

conn.Open();
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
} catch (Exception ex) {
System.Diagnostics.EventLog el = new System.Diagnostics.EventLog();
el.Source = "data access class";
el.WriteEntry(ex.Message + ex.StackTrace + " SQL '" + commandText + "'");
} finally {
conn.Close();
comm.Dispose();
}
}

Iam fairly new to SQLClient and all, and iam having a problem with my SQL tables..when ever i run my code, the data, rather than getting updated, attaches itself to the already existing records in the tables..here's my code
SqlConnection conneciones = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
SqlCommand cmd;
conneciones.Open();
//put values into SQL DATABASE Table 1
for (int ok = 0; ok < CleanedURLlist.Length; ok++)
{
cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into URL_Entries values('" + CleanedURLlist[ok] + "' , '" + DateTime.Now + "' , '" + leak + "' )", conneciones);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
conneciones.Dispose();
Take a look at these functions, i hope you understand better on update , insert and delete functions..

Your code should be inserting new records, but I'm not clear on whether it is not doing that, or you mean to update existing records.
Aside from that, understanding that you are new to working with SQL Server, there are a couple of things you should be aware of.
You should use using to automatically dispose resources. This will also close your connection for you so you don't have open connections hanging around.
You should use parameters to protect against sql injection attacks. Another benefit of using parameters in your case is that you don't need to create new commands for every statement.
For example:
using (var connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString)
using (var command = connection.CreateCommand())
{
command.CommandText = "insert into URL_Entries values(#url, #now, #leak)";
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("#now", DateTime.Now);
command.Parameters.AddWithValue("#lead", leak);
// update to correspond to your definition of the table column
var urlParameter = command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#url", SqlDbType.VarChar, 100));
connection.Open();
for (int ok = 0; ok < CleanedURLlist.Length; ok++)
{
urlParameter.Value = CleanedURLlist[ok];
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
Per your comment, if you want to do an update, you'll need to include the parameter(s) that identify the rows to update. If this is a single row, use the primary key value:
command.CommandText = "update URL_Entries set UrlColumn = #url, ModifiedDate = #now where ID = #id";
You're using an INSERT function, that is 'ADD NEW RECORDS'
If you want an update, you'll want an UPDATE function
UPDATE tablename
SET column1 = 'x', column2 = 'y'
WHERE id = z
