Stored Procedure return value handle and record set handle in C# ASP.NET

Wednesday, April 1, 2009 |

If you are SQL Server geek, you must be aware with Stored Procedure. While question comes to implement stored procedure in front end language, many developers makes mistake or feel confusion as per my recent observation so I am tempted to write one article which can show how to handle stored procedure in C# when it return some value and when it return some record sets.

--CREATE TABLE

CREATE TABLE empDemo

(

ID INT NOT NULL,

NAME VARCHAR(50)

)

GO


--INSERT DATA

INSERT INTO empDemo

SELECT 1,'Ritesh' UNION ALL

SELECT 2,'Rajan'


--create SP which will return list of employee

--NOTE: this is just basic SP, you can create

--your own for your custom need.

CREATE PROC ListEmp (@id INT)

AS

BEGIN

SELECT * FROM empDemo WHERE ID=@id

END


--check SP whether it works.

EXEC ListEmp 2

Now, we will see C# code (in asp.net code behind) to return the list of employee:

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

//create connection string and assign it to SqlConnection object

string strConn = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=sa";

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection conn = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(strConn);

conn.Open();


//setup SqlCommand and assign SP name along with input parameter variable name and value

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand command = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand();

command.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure;

command.Connection = conn;

command.CommandText = "ListEmp";

command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", "2");


//create one data adapter which will execute the command and fill the data into data set

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter recordAdp = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter();

recordAdp.SelectCommand = command;

System.Data.DataSet recordSet = new System.Data.DataSet();

recordAdp.Fill(recordSet);

command.Dispose();

conn.Close();


//bind gridview1 with our dataset

GridView1.DataSource = recordSet.Tables[0].DefaultView;

GridView1.DataBind();

}

This seems basic but really useful for newbie, now what if we have some other DML command and we want to return value from SP and handle it in our C# ASP.NET.

--create SP to insert record and retun value

--we will handle return value in C# code behind

CREATE PROC InsertEmp(@ID INT, @Name VARCHAR(20))

AS

BEGIN

BEGIN TRY

INSERT INTO empDemo(ID,Name) VALUES(@ID,@Name)

return 1

END TRY

BEGIN CATCH

return 0

END CATCH

END


--check SP works or not

EXEC InsertEmp 3,'Alka'

Now let us move to ASP.NET C# code behind.

protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

//create connection string and assign it to SqlConnection object

string strConn = "Data Source=.;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=sa";

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection conn = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(strConn);

conn.Open();


//setup SqlCommand and assign SP name along with input parameter variable name and value

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand command = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand();

command.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.StoredProcedure;

command.Connection = conn;

command.CommandText = "InsertEmp";

command.Parameters.Add("@ReturnValue",System.Data.SqlDbType.Int);

command.Parameters["@ReturnValue"].Direction = System.Data.ParameterDirection.ReturnValue;

command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", "4");

command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Name", "Bihag");


command.ExecuteScalar();


int i = Convert.ToInt32(command.Parameters["@ReturnValue"].Value);

if (i == 1)

{

Response.Write("Successfull!!!!");

}

else

{

Response.Write("Not Successfull!!!!");

}

}

Hope you have enjoyed it!!!!
