Integer is being returned as 0 when it shouldn't be. Retrieved from database

I'm trying to get a value from my database but it keeps returning a value of 0 and i cannot figure out why. I've been retrieving data from the database for the whole of my project and it is just not working here. None of the values in the database are = to 0.
int rentalPrice is the one being returned as 0`
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (Request.QueryString["id"] == null)
{
Response.Redirect("DisplayCars.aspx");
}
else
{
id = Convert.ToInt32(Request.QueryString["id"].ToString());
con.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "select * from cars where id ='" + id + "'";
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
lblCarID.Text = id.ToString();
DataTable dt2 = new DataTable();
SqlDataAdapter da2 = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
foreach (DataRow dr2 in dt2.Rows)
{
rentalPrice = Convert.ToInt32(dr2["car_rental_price"]);
}
lblRentalPrice.Text = rentalPrice.ToString();
con.Close();
}

// This uses a Connection pool, so you don't need to reuse the same SqlConnection
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(...))
{
using (SqlCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand())
{
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "select [car_rental_price] from cars where id = #Id";
var idParam = new SqlParameter("#Id");
idParam.Value = id;
cmd.Parameters.Add(idParam);
con.Open();
using (var reader = cmd.ExcecuteReader())
{
reader.Read();
lblRentalPrice.Text = reader.GetInt32(0).ToString();
lblCarID.Text = id.ToString();}
}
}
}
To execute a query and get results, you need to use cmd.ExecuteReader.
Also, rather than concatenating values into a string to build your SQL query, you need to use parameterized queries. This helps prevent SQL Injection attacks.
Also, SqlConnection should not be put in a field (class level variable). Instead, you should use local variables and wrap them in a using statement to ensure that they get disposed of properly.

hey you did not fill the Data Table.. then how it has any Values???
first Fill the data Table and use it in Foreach loop
adapter.Fill(DataTable);
foreach(DataRow dr in DataTable)
{
//get the id
}

C# Connection must be valid and open Mysql

is there something wrong with my codes. I already try another codes but the problem is still the same. I've been solving this error for a couple of weeks now, and i can't figure it out how to solve it. And also I already try some another code but the problem is still the same.
I want to save a multiple row from dataGrid to my database.
here's the codes that i use to save a multiple row
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MySqlConnection conString = new MySqlConnection("datasource = localhost; port = 3306; Initial catalog = dbnewsystem; username = root;password = 1234");
MySqlCommand command1 = new MySqlCommand("INSERT INTO purchaseorder (orNo, ProdNo, Quantity, total)" +
"VALUES(#ORNo,#ProductNo,#quantity,#total )", conString);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#ORNo", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#ProductNo", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#quantity", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#total", textBox6.Text);
conString.Open();
command1.ExecuteNonQuery();
command1.Connection = conString;
conString.Close();
command1.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
command1.CommandText = "pos_save";
if (command1.ExecuteNonQuery() == 1)
{
MessageBox.Show("saved");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Sorry Nothing to be Update");
}
conString.Close();
}

change sequence
command1.Connection = conString;
command1.ExecuteNonQuery();

You have implemented wrong sequence:
...
conString.Open(); // Connection opened
command1.ExecuteNonQuery(); // Try executing (fail)
command1.Connection = conString; // Connection assigned
Change to
conString.Open(); // Connection opened
command1.Connection = conString; // Connection assigned
command1.ExecuteNonQuery(); // Try executing (fail)
A better design is
// Wrap IDisposable into using
using (MySqlConnection conString = new MySqlConnection("...")) {
conString.Open();
// Make SQL Readable
string sql =
#"INSERT INTO purchaseorder(
orNo,
ProdNo,
Quantity,
total)
VALUES(
#ORNo,
#ProductNo,
#quantity,
#total)";
// Wrap IDisposable into using
using (MySqlCommand command1 = new MySqlCommand(sql, conString)) {
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#ORNo", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#ProductNo", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#quantity", dataGridView1.Rows.Count);
command1.Parameters.AddWithValue("#total", textBox6.Text);
command1.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}

How to insert data into a database table using a SqlCommand

I am trying to insert data into a database that I have that has a table called EmployeeInfo
The user is prompted to enter a last name and select a department ID (displayed to the user as either marketing or development) The column ID automatically increments.
Here is my Code behind
protected void SubmitEmployee_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
var submittedEmployeeName = TextBox1.Text;
var submittedDepartment = selectEmployeeDepartment.Text;
if (submittedEmployeeName == "")
{
nameError.Text = "*Last name cannot be blank";
}
else
{
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection sqlConnection1 =
new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection("ConnString");
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand cmd = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO EmployeeInfo (LastName, DepartmentID ) VALUES ('" + submittedEmployeeName + "', " + submittedDepartment + ")";
cmd.Connection = sqlConnection1;
sqlConnection1.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
sqlConnection1.Close();
}
}
The error I'm recieving is 'Arguement exception was unhandled by user code'
Here is a picture of it.
As requested. More details

If I had enough reputation, I would rather post this as a reply, but it might actually be the solution.
The reason why it stops there is because you are not providing a legit SqlConnection, since your input is: "ConnString", which is just that text.
The connection string should look something like:
const string MyConnectionString = "SERVER=localhost;DATABASE=DbName;UID=userID;PWD=userPW;"
Which in your case should end up like:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection sqlConnection1 = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(MyConnectionString);
Besides that, you should build your connections like following:
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(MyConnectionString)) {
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand())
{
cmd.CommandText = xxxxxx; // Your query to the database
cmd.Connection = con;
cmd.Connection.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}
This will do the closing for you and it also makes it easier for you to nestle connections. I did a project recently and did the connection your way, which ended up not working when I wanted to do more than one execute in one function. Just important to make a new command for each execute.

How to connect my gridview to database?

I am using windows forms and i want to create a method that will simply view all the data depending on the item inside the ComboBox in a datagridview.
private void InsertReceipt()
{
decimal Stub;
Stub = decimal.Parse(txtAmount.Text) / 2000;
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.Connection = cn;
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Ticket(CustomerID, Date, Store, Amount, NoStub)" +
"VALUES (#CustomerID, #Date, #Store, #Amount, #NoStub) ";
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#CustomerID", cboName.SelectedValue);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Date", dtpDate.Value.Date.ToString());
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Store", txtStore.Text);
decimal amount = decimal.Parse(txtAmount.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Amount", amount);
cmd.Parameters.Add("#NoStub", SqlDbType.Decimal).Value = Stub;
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
This are the fields and I need to view all the data depending on the item inside the ComboBox.

Your question is very general and vague therefor it is difficult to be precise in the answer. If you just want to learn how to use the datagridview with windows forms you can find plenty information about it online.
I find dotnetpearls a good starting point
void FillData()
{
// 1
// Open connection
using (SqlCeConnection c = new SqlCeConnection(
Properties.Settings.Default.DataConnectionString))
{
c.Open();
// 2
// Create new DataAdapter
using (SqlCeDataAdapter a = new SqlCeDataAdapter(
"SELECT * FROM Animals", c))
{
// 3
// Use DataAdapter to fill DataTable
DataTable t = new DataTable();
a.Fill(t);
// 4
// Render data onto the screen
dataGridView1.DataSource = t;
}
}
}
If i may recomend that you work through a few tutorials and ask specific question where you are stuck (with error messages and so on)?

Use this method way for Bind Gridview with data from Database
protected void BindGridview()
{
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=DatabaseName;Integrated Security=true;Initial Catalog=***"))//Connection string
{
con.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("Select CustomerID,Date,Store,Amount,NoStub FROM Ticket where ColumnName='"+ YourDrodownId.SlectedValue +"'", con);
SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
YourGridview.DataSource = dr;
YourGridview.DataBind();
con.Close();
}
}
Then set the autogeneratecolumns property to false in our Gridview control and call this method in inside of your page load or were you want !
And Here is a full sample's with a code !

Trouble Deleting entries from an access database using C# (Visual Studio)

I'm Having some trouble deleting an entry on my database.
I can insert data, but i can't delete them.
I have a 2 variables database, and i want to manage those data.
but when i debug the program , the first button (btnAdicionar) works fine, but when i press the button "btnRemover", i get an erron on the line "cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();"
what am i doing wrong? thanks
here is the code:
private void btnAdicionar_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\\BancodeDados\\Nomes.mdb");
string sql = "INSERT INTO Nomes (Nome, Sobrenome) VALUES(?, ?)";
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(sql, conn);
conn.Open();
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Nome", txtNome.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Sobrenome", txtSobre.Text);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
conn.Close();
this.nomesTableAdapter.Fill(this.nomesDataSet.Nomes);
}
private void btnRemover_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\\BancodeDados\\Nomes.mdb");
string sql = "DELETE FROM Nomes (Nome, Sobrenome) WHERE (?, ?)";
OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand(sql, conn);
conn.Open();
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Nome", txtNome.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("Sobrenome", txtSobre.Text);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
conn.Close();
this.nomesTableAdapter.Fill(this.nomesDataSet.Nomes);
}

Your delete statement is not valid SQL, hence the error when you call ExecuteNonQuery
It should be something like this:
DELETE FROM Nomes WHERE Nome= ? and Sobrenome = ?
