problem with making query wich contains parameter

problem with making query wich contains parameter

• Pockey

  thank you for the really fast response.
  Well i think i have to do some more reading. I was actually following this book with the example and everything. But they forgot to tell me anything about this.
  
  I just went to desing dataset, right mouse clicked the adapter and added a new query with the where and the parameter.
  
  Thinking it would be a lot easier using the GUI wizards.
  
  Btw this is the code i placed in the click event op my search button
  filmsTableAdapter.FillByNaam(
  collectionDataSet.Films, txtZoek.Text);
  
  here i get this error:
  Error 1 No overload for method 'FillByNaam' takes '2' arguments

  basically you need to add a SqlParameter (or Oledb...you actually haven't specified the type of client you are using, Sql or Oledb )

  So...something like this:

  SqlCommand theSQLCommand = new SqlCommand("SELECT [ID], MapPos, Naam, Soort, Kwaliteit, Genre FROM Films WHERE Naam = @naam", theSqlConnection);

  SqlParameter theNaamParameter = new SqlParameter("@naam", SqlDbType.nvarchar, 50);

  theNaamParameter.Value = ValueHere;

  theSQLCommand.Parameters.Add(theNaamParameter);

  //then open connection and execute query

  does this help/give you some guidence you need to add a parameter to the collection of parameters in the SqlCommand (or OleDbCommand, making sure you use the right client and the right data types etc...) so when executing it, it can take the parameters it requires and do the search based on the parameter values

  Thanx anyways ahmedilyas
  Very good to have people like you here
  

  one other question though , a bit more sql oriented but still..
  if i want to use the like statement, how can i do that

  SELECT ID, MapPos, Naam, Soort, Kwaliteit, Genre FROM Films where Naam like %@naam%

  this doesn't look right though , think it's more something like option deux

  another idea would be something like..

  StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

  sb.Append = "%";

  sb.Append = txtZoek.Text;

  sb.Append = "%";

  filmsTableAdapter.FillByNaam(

  collectionDataSet.Films, sb);

  Then leave the % away in the query. This doesn't work, some problem.

  this gives me an error, thanx in advance

  ps: you can see i'm still very new to this
