SQLCommand, create table - c#

I want to create table in my database after button click. In Button_Click function I have a code
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(#"MyConnectionString");
conn.Open();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("CREATE TABLE '" + tableName+ "' (IdPy INT IDENTITY(1,1), Question NVARCHAR (MAX) NOT NULL, IsChecked BIT NOT NULL, CONSTRAINTPK_'" + tableName+ "' PRIMARY KEY(Id) )", conn);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
conn.Close();
tableName is my String variable (its value 2018-04-18 asd - yes, I want the table with such a name). And I have an error after button click:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 'Incorrect syntax near '2018-04-18 asd'.'
I think that the problem is in my SqlCommand. I would be gratefull if you could help me solve that problem.

It looks like the tableName variable is 2018-04-18 asd. If that really is the correct table name, you need to escape it (and the constraint) in square brackets:
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("CREATE TABLE [" + tableName + "] (IdPy INT IDENTITY(1,1), Question NVARCHAR (MAX) NOT NULL, IsChecked BIT NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT [CONSTRAINTPK_" + tableName+ "] PRIMARY KEY(Id) )", conn);

You should escape ([...] in case of MS SQL) table and constraint names:
//DONE: wrap IDisposable into using
using(SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(#"MyConnectionString")) {
conn.Open();
//DONE: Make sql readable. Can you see that you've skipped CONSTRAINT keyword?
string sql =
$#"CREATE TABLE [{tableName}] (
-- Fields
IdPy INT IDENTITY(1,1),
Question NVARCHAR (MAX) NOT NULL,
IsChecked BIT NOT NULL,
-- Constraints
--DONE: Constraint key word (optional in some RDBMS) added
CONSTRAINT [CONSTRAINTPK_{tableName}] PRIMARY KEY(Id)
)";
//DONE: wrap IDisposable into using
using (qlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn)) {
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
}

It might be easier to identify issues with your SQLCommand by using a string variable and parameterised string formatting. An example:
string query = "CREATE TABLE #tablename (IdPy INT IDENTITY(1,1),
Question NVARCHAR (MAX) NOT NULL, IsChecked BIT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINTPK_#tablename PRIMARY KEY(Id) )";
string param = new {#tablename = txttable.txt(example)};
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, param, conn);
This might help step through to make sure that the variable you have to inspect more concise.

How to fix FK Constraint insert Exception

According to my question with weird problem specified here how to fix
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: String or binary data would be truncated in table
My problem is, that if I am saving new problem into the database, its ID is always set to 0 (I checked this out in debugging), which then throws
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The INSERT statement conflicted with the FOREIGN KEY constraint "FK__Alert__Problem_I__17F790F9". The conflict occurred in database "SmartOne", table "dbo.Problem", column 'id'
But in SQL Server Management Studio, the ID is set correctly (ID is defined as an Identity column).
Where both I am using is in my question mentioned below. Thanks for any ideas or advice.
Method that saves Problem:
public void Save(Problem element)
{
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(DatabaseSingleton.connString))
{
conn.Open();
using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO Problem VALUES " +
"(#nameOfAlert, #value, #result, #message_ID) ", conn))
{
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#nameOfAlert", element.NameOfAlert));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#value", (int)element.Value));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#result", (int)element.Result));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#message_ID", element.Message_Id));
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
command.CommandText = "Select ##Identity";
}
conn.Close();
}
}
Method that saves an Alert:
public void Save(Alert element)
{
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(DatabaseSingleton.connString))
{
conn.Open();
using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand("INSERT INTO [Alert] VALUES (#message_ID, #date, #email, #AMUser_ID, #Problem_ID) ", conn))
{
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#message_ID", element.Id_MimeMessage));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#date", element.Date));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#email", element.Email));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#AMUser_ID", element.User_ID));
command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("#Problem_ID", element.Problem_ID));
command.ExecuteNonQuery();
command.CommandText = "Select ##Identity";
}
conn.Close();
}
}
SQL Scheme
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Alert](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[message_ID] [varchar](100) NOT NULL,
[date] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[email] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[AMUser_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Problem_ID] [int] NOT NULL);
//Where is ID, it means FK ID
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Problem](
[id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[nameOfAlert] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
[Value_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[Result_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[message_ID] [varchar](100) NOT NULL);
One problem might be that you're never actually getting back the inserted IDENTITY value from your first insert - thus you aren't using any valid ProblemId value for your second insert.
Try something like this:
public void Save(Problem element)
{
using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(DatabaseSingleton.connString))
{
conn.Open();
// define INSERT query - I'd *strongly* recommend specifying all
// columns you're inserting into!
// Also: run the "SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()" right after the INSERT
string insertQry = "INSERT INTO dbo.Problem(NameOfAlert, Value, Result, MessageId) " +
"VALUES (#nameOfAlert, #value, #result, #message_ID); " +
"SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY();";
using (SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(insertQry, conn))
{
// also here: define the *datatype* of the parameter, and use
// .Value = to set the value.
// Since you haven't shown what the table looks like, I'm just
// **guessing** the datatype and max length for the string parameters - adapt as needed!
command.Parameters.Add("#nameOfAlert", SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = element.NameOfAlert;
command.Parameters.Add("#value", SqlDbType.Int).Value = (int)element.Value;
command.Parameters.Add("#result", SqlDbType.Int).Value = (int)element.Result;
command.Parameters.Add("#message_ID", SqlDbType.VarChar, 100).Value = element.Message_Id;
// since your statement now returns the ID value - use "ExecuteScalar"
var returnedValue = command.ExecuteScalar();
if (returnedValue != null)
{
// if a value was returned - convert to INT
int problemId = Convert.ToInt32(returnedValue);
}
}
conn.Close();
}
}
Now, in case the INSERT works, you get back the ProblemId value from the identity column, and you can now use this in your second insert as value for the #ProblemId parameter.
For saving the id into other table, you have to complete the insertion first. if the insertion is not completed then you can not get the problem id (if it is the primary key, which is supposed to be returned by saving the datas). Only after saving the data to the table, you are going to have the problem id then you can use it as FK in the same method.
if i say, there is two table and you are going to use the first table primary key in the second table as FK. Then you need to complete the first table row insertion. after excuting the query for the first table, you will get the primary key of that row and you can use easily in the second table as FK.

SQL Server command not showing result

I am trying to create some text but the text is not showing up...
Here is my code:
SqlCommand getLeastId = new SqlCommand("SELECT Id FROM [Chat-main] WHERE Userid LIKE #id AND Sendtoid LIKE #toid", c);
getLeastId.Parameters.AddWithValue("#id", (string)Session["CurentUserid"]);
getLeastId.Parameters.AddWithValue("#toid", (string)Session["contactuserid"]);
c.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = getLeastId.ExecuteReader();
if (reader.HasRows)
while (reader.Read())
CreateDiv((int)reader[0]);
c.Close();
The create div function is working.
Thank you guys for helping
My table structure:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Chat-main]
(
[Id] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[tag] VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL,
[commet] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
[Userid] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
[Sendtoid] VARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([Id] ASC)
);
There are few issues with your code.
1- LIKE can't be used with integer, it is only meant for string types. If you still want, you can use it by converting INT to VARCHAR like following.
CAST(ID AS VARCHAR(9)) LIKE '%123'
2- LIKE used for Sendtoid is also not correct, it should be like following.
getLeastId.Parameters.AddWithValue("#toid"
, "%" + (string)Session["contactuserid"] + "%");
You can change your code like following.
SqlCommand getLeastId = new SqlCommand("SELECT Id FROM [Chat-main] Where Userid = #id AND Sendtoid like #toid", c);
getLeastId.Parameters.AddWithValue("#id", (string)Session["CurentUserid"]);
getLeastId.Parameters.AddWithValue("#toid", "%" + (string)Session["contactuserid"] + "%");
c.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = getLeastId.ExecuteReader();
if (reader.HasRows)
while (reader.Read())
CreateDiv((int)reader[0]);
c.Close();

Invalid column name when inserting a row to sql database

Hi
I have a sql table with this defenition:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Table] (
[Id] INT IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL,
[TelegramId] BIGINT NULL,
[Username] VARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[FName] VARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[LName] VARCHAR (50) NOT NULL,
[Gender] BIT NOT NULL,
[WantedGender] BIT NOT NULL,
[Age] INT NOT NULL,
[WantedAgeRange] INT NOT NULL,
[TakenLike] BIGINT NOT NULL,
[Hot] BIT NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_Table] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([Id] ASC)
);
and when I try to add a row to this table with this code:
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(conStr))
{
con.Open();
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(#"INSERT INTO [Table](TelegramId, UserName, FName, LName, Gender, WantedGender, Age, WantedAgeRange, TakenLikes, Hot)" +
" VALUES (#telID, #username, #fname, #lname, #gender, #wgender, #age, #wage, #tlikes, #hot)", con))
{
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#telID", temp.TelegramId);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#username", temp.UserName);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#fname", temp.FName);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#lname", temp.LName);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#gender", temp.Gender);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#wgender", temp.WantedGender);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#age", temp.Age);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#wage", temp.WantedAgeRange);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#tlikes", "0");
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#hot", "0");
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
bot.SendTextMessage(53654050, "added to Table...");
}
}
but I get this error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Invalid column name 'Gender'.
Invalid column name 'WantedGender'.
Invalid column name 'Age'.
Invalid column name 'WantedAgeRange'.
Invalid column name 'TakenLikes'.
Invalid column name 'Hot'.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)
at...
and the temp is a object from a class with these items:
long TelegramId, TakenLikes;
string UserName, FName, LName;
int Age, WantedAgeRange, Gender, WantedGender, Hot;
How can I fix this error?
thank you
Two things:
Use a multi-line string to define the query (or StringBuilder).
Escape your table fields.
string query = #"INSERT INTO [Table]([TelegramId], [UserName], [FName], [LName], [Gender], [WantedGender], [Age], [WantedAgeRange], [TakenLikes], [Hot])
VALUES (#telID, #username, #fname, #lname, #gender, #wgender, #age, #wage, #tlikes, #hot)";
using(SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, con) ...
Note: I strongly recommend creating a stored procedure to do this. And invoking it from ADO.NET
I also suspect something might be amuck with the chosen table name of Table. Is it possible to rename this, and to also fully qualify it in your query? Something like [dbo].[User]?
Barring this, I would recommend copying the query text and running directly in SSMS. It perhaps will give you a more clear error and will server useful as a debugging step.

Operand type clash: nvarchar is incompatible with user-defined table type

I'm new here and I'm facing a trouble currently, my scenario is that I wanted to insert and update data from Excel into a SQL Server table.
For the insert part it works perfectly but when it comes to update I have no idea how should I do that. I have search for few methods and I found this is the most comfortable for me by using stored procedure.
Here is my code that I'm using now. When I try it gave me this error:
Operand type clash: nvarchar is incompatible with user-defined table type
--- Stored procedure ---
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[chkUpdate]
#Operator IC_CHK READONLY
AS
BEGIN
set nocount on;
MERGE INTO tb_Operator c1
USING #Operator c2 ON c1.IC = c2.IC
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET
c1.Name = c2.Name,
--c1.IC = c2.IC,
c1.Email = c2.Email,
c1.Status = c2.Status,
c1.Datetime = c2.Datetime
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT VALUES(c2.Name, c2.IC, c2.Email, c2.[Status], c2.[Datetime]);
end
--- User-defined table type ---
CREATE TYPE [dbo].[IC_CHK] as table

[Id] [int] NULL,
[Name] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[IC] [bigint] NULL,
[Email] [nvarchar](MAX) NULL,
[Status] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[Datetime] [datetime] NULL
)
VS 2010 code:
protected void btnImport_Click1(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
int i = 0;
try
{
string path = string.Concat(Server.MapPath("~/Excel/" + UploadExcel.FileName));
UploadExcel.SaveAs(path);
String strCon = string.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Ace.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source={0}; Extended Properties=Excel 12.0;",path);
OleDbDataAdapter myda = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [sheet1$]", strCon);
DataTable myds = new DataTable();
myda.Fill(myds);
for (i = 0; i <= myds.Rows.Count - 1; i++)
{
String constr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["conn"].ConnectionString;
using (SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(constr))
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("chkUpdate"))
{
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Connection = con;
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Operator", path);
con.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();
}
}
MsgBox1.alert("Import success");
View.Visible = true;
vBinds();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MsgBox1.alert(ex.Message);
}
}
Do check for me and I'm appreciate it. Thank you
P/S: I double confirm that my user-defined table type has the same data type with my table.
In the INSERT in your MERGE statement, I would recommend to explicitly define the columns you're inserting into. Most likely, that's the cause of the error - you're inserting your columns - but you're not specifying which target columns those should be inserted into.
Since you're not specifying that, you must supply values for each column in the table, in the exact order in which they are defined - is that really the case?? E.g. what do you insert into your ID column in the table??
Assuming the ID column on your actual database table is an IDENTITY column, I would use (otherwise, you'd have to list ID in the list of columns to insert into as well and provide a value in the VALUES list of values):
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT(Name, IC, Email, [Status], [DateTime])
VALUES(c2.Name, c2.IC, c2.Email, c2.[Status], c2.[Datetime]);
and I would also recommend not to use T-SQL reserved keywords like status or datetime as your column names - you're just asking for trouble doing so. Use more expressive names - something that really relates to your business domain - not just datetime.....

C# database Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition

Have just started working with C# and sql and have been trying to use a database to store information, but not 100% on the syntax of it all and have been piecing it together, but have not been able to get past this error, any help would be appreciated, it is probably only something simple i have looked over.
here is the C# code i am using to try and access the database
SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(#"Data Source=(LocalDB)\v11.0;AttachDbFilename=""F:\Bar admin\Bar admin\Database.mdf"";Integrated Security=True");
SqlCommand DatabaseNew = new SqlCommand("insert into Events Values(#Name, #Date, #Price, #Tickets, #Descrip)");
myConnection.Open();
// adds the event information to the database
DatabaseNew.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Name", TxtName.Text);
DatabaseNew.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Date", dateTimePicker1.Value);
DatabaseNew.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Price", TxtName.Text);
DatabaseNew.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Tickets", Convert.ToInt16(TxtTicketNum.Text));
DatabaseNew.Parameters.AddWithValue("#Descrip", TxtDesc.Text);
DatabaseNew.Connection = myConnection;
int n = DatabaseNew.ExecuteNonQuery();
if (n>0)
{
MessageBox.Show("Event" + TxtName.Text + "Added");
}
myConnection.Close();
and the sql code
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Events] (
[Id] INT NOT NULL,
[Name] NCHAR (10) NULL,
[Date] DATETIME NULL,
[Price] NCHAR(10) NULL,
[Tickets] INT NULL,
[TicketsSold] INT NULL,
[Descrip] NVARCHAR(50) NULL,
PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ([Id] ASC)
);
Again any help would be much apreaciated, thank you.
It is expecting all fields with exact order. So Id and TicketsSold are missing and causing error. You should change to:
SqlCommand DatabaseNew = new SqlCommand("insert into Events
(Name,Date,Price,Tickets,Decrip) Values(#Name, #Date, #Price, #Tickets, #Descrip)");
You are not passing ID and it doesn't appear that your ID is set to Auto increment.
