Each call to must be paired with a call to which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread. Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this and retrieves one or more results sets from the server. Each call to must be paired with a call to which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread. Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this . Each call to BeginExecuteXmlReader must be paired with a call to EndExecuteXmlReader, which finishes the operation, typically on a separate thread, and returns an object. Executes commands that return rows. For increased performance, invokes commands using the Transact-SQL sp_executesql system stored procedure. Therefore, might not have the effect that you want if used to execute commands such as Transact-SQL SET statements. Executes commands such as Transact-SQL INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE, and SET statements. Retrieves a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a database. Sends the to the and builds an object. You can reset the property and reuse the object. However, you must close the before you can execute a new or previous command. If a is generated by the method executing a , the remains open when the severity level is 19 or less. When the severity level is 20 or greater, the server ordinarily closes the . However, the user can reopen the connection and continue. Nameless, also called ordinal, parameters are not supported by the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server.

The in which the executes. 1.0.5000.0 2.0.0.0 Method 2.0.0.0 System.IAsyncResult The method starts the process of asynchronously executing a tsql statement or stored procedure that does not return rows, so that other tasks can run concurrently while the statement is executing. When the statement has completed, developers must call the method to finish the operation. The method returns immediately ( has no effect on ), but until the code executes the corresponding method call, it must not execute any other calls that start a synchronous or asynchronous execution against the same object. Calling the before the command's execution is completed causes the object to block until the execution is finished. Note that the command text and parameters are sent to the server synchronously. If a large command or many parameters are sent, this method may block during writes. After the command is sent, the method returns immediately without waiting for an answer from the server--that is, reads are asynchronous. Because this overload does not support a callback procedure, developers must either poll to determine whether the command has completed, using the property of the returned by the method; or wait for the completion of one or more commands using the property of the returned .

Initiates the asynchronous execution of the Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that is described by this .

An that can be used to poll or wait for results, or both; this value is also needed when invoking , which returns the number of affected rows. Method 2.0.0.0 System.IAsyncResult The method starts the process of asynchronously executing a Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure that does not return rows, so that other tasks can run concurrently while the statement is executing. When the statement has completed, developers must call the method to finish the operation. The method returns immediately ( has no effect on ), but until the code executes the corresponding method call, it must not execute any other calls that start a synchronous or asynchronous execution against the same object. Calling the before the command's execution is completed causes the object to block until the execution is finished. The parameter lets you specify an delegate that is called when the statement has completed. You can call the method from within this delegate procedure, or from any other location within your application. In addition, you can pass any object in the parameter, and your callback procedure can retrieve this information using the property. Note that the command text and parameters are sent to the server synchronously. If a large command or many parameters are sent, this method may block during writes. After the command is sent, the method returns immediately without waiting for an answer from the server--that is, reads are asynchronous. Because the callback procedure executes from within a background thread supplied by the Microsoft .NET common language runtime, it is very important that you take a rigorous approach to handling cross-thread interactions from within your applications. For example, you must not interact with a form's contents from within your callback procedure; should you have to update the form, you must switch back to the form's thread in order to do your work. The example in this topic demonstrates this behavior. All errors that occur during the execution of the operation are thrown as exceptions in the callback procedure. You must handle the exception in the callback procedure, not in the main application. See the example in this topic for additional information on handling exceptions in the callback procedure.

If a large command or many parameters are sent, this method may block during writes. After the command is sent, the method returns immediately without waiting for an answer from the server--that is, reads are asynchronous. Although command execution is asynchronous, value fetching is still synchronous. This means that calls to may block if more data is required and the underlying network's read operation blocks. Because this overload does not support a callback procedure, developers must either poll to determine whether the command has completed, using the property of the returned by the method; or wait for the completion of one or more commands using the property of the returned . If you use or to access XML data, SQL Server will return any XML results greater than 2,033 characters in length in multiple rows of 2,033 characters each. To avoid this behavior, use or to read FOR XML queries.

The method returns immediately, but until the code executes the corresponding method call, it must not execute any other calls that start a synchronous or asynchronous execution against the same object. Calling the before the command's execution is completed causes the object to block until the execution is finished. The parameter lets you specify options that control the behavior of the command and its connection. These values can be combined together (using the programming language's OR operator); generally, developers use the CommandBehavior.CloseConnection value to make sure that the connection is closed by the runtime when the is closed. Note that the command text and parameters are sent to the server synchronously. If a large command or many parameters are sent, this method may block during writes.

Method 2.0.0.0 System.IAsyncResult The method starts the process of asynchronously executing a Transact-SQL statement that returns rows as XML, so that other tasks can run concurrently while the statement is executing. When the statement has completed, developers must call the EndExecuteXmlReader method to finish the operation and retrieve the XML returned by the command. The method returns immediately, but until the code executes the corresponding EndExecuteXmlReader method call, it must not execute any other calls that start a synchronous or asynchronous execution against the same object. Calling the EndExecuteXmlReader before the command's execution is completed causes the object to block until the execution is finished. The property ordinarily specifies a Transact-SQL statement with a valid FOR XML clause. However, CommandText can also specify a statement that returns ntext data that contains valid XML. A typical query can be formatted as in the following C# example: SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("SELECT ContactID, FirstName, LastName FROM dbo.Contact FOR XML AUTO, XMLDATA", SqlConn); This method can also be used to retrieve a single-row, single-column result set. In this case, if more than one row is returned, the EndExecuteXmlReader method attaches the to the value on the first row, and discards the rest of the result set.

If you use or to access XML data, SQL Server will return any XML results greater than 2,033 characters in length in multiple rows of 2,033 characters each. To avoid this behavior, use or to read FOR XML queries.

A object. One of the values. 1.0.5000.0 2.0.0.0 Method System.Object Use the method to retrieve a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a database. This requires less code than using the method, and then performing the operations that you need to generate the single value using the data returned by a . A typical query can be formatted as in the following C# example: cmd.CommandText = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM dbo.region"; Int32 count = (Int32) cmd.ExecuteScalar();

Executes the query, and returns the first column of the first row in the result set returned by the query. Additional columns or rows are ignored.

The first column of the first row in the result set, or a null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the result set is empty. Returns a maximum of 2033 characters. 1.0.5000.0 2.0.0.0 Method System.Xml.XmlReader The property ordinarily specifies a tsql statement with a valid FOR XML clause. However, can also specify a statement that returns ntext or nvarchar data that contains valid XML, or the contents of a column defined with the xml data type. A typical query can be formatted as in the following Microsoft Visual C# example: SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM dbo.Customers FOR XML AUTO, XMLDATA", SqlConn); This method can also be used to retrieve a single-row, single-column result set that contains XML data. In this case, if more than one row is returned, the method attaches the to the value on the first row, and discards the rest of the result set.

Property 2.0.0.0 System.ComponentModel.DefaultValue(true) System.Boolean To be added. This feature is used in ASP.NET applications to receive notifications for all commands executed in an ASP page against SQL Server. This enables ASP.NET to cache the page until the queries used to render the page would produce a different result. Automatic enlistment. This property applies only to versions of SQL Server that support query notifications. For earlier versions, setting this property to true has no effect on the application.

Gets or sets a value indicating whether the application should automatically receive query notifications from a common object.

Property System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameterCollection To be added: an object of type 'SqlParameterCollection' The Microsoft .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server does not support the question mark (?) placeholder for passing parameters to a SQL Statement or a stored procedure called by a command of CommandType.Text. In this case, named parameters must be used. For example: SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE CustomerID = @CustomerID If the parameters in the collection do not match the requirements of the query to be executed, an error may result.

Before you call , specify the data type of each parameter in the statement to be prepared. For each parameter that has a variable length data type, you must set the property to the maximum size needed. returns an error if these conditions are not met. If the database context is changed by executing the Transact-SQL USE <database> statement, or by calling the method, then must be called a second time. If you call an Execute method after calling , any parameter value that is larger than the value specified by the property is automatically truncated to the original specified size of the parameter, and no truncation errors are returned. Output parameters (whether prepared or not) must have a user-specified data type. If you specify a variable length data type, you must also specify the maximum .
