PAUL, Why not use datasets/tableadapters? They have all the CRUD logic built into them.
Dave -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Newton Sent: 10 February 2016 13:20 To: [email protected] Subject: .NET equivalent of VFP SQL Pass-Through (i.e. without using EF or LINQ) Hi all In VFP we can do this lnConnection = SQLSTRINGCONNECT(cConnectString) SQLEXEC(lnConnection,"Select * From cname") && puts results into SQLRESULT I am wondering what is the nearest equivalent in .NET This is what I have come up with, but is there a better way? SqlConnection sqlConnection1 = new SqlConnection(cConnectString); SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(); SqlDataReader reader; cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM cname"; cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text; cmd.Connection = sqlConnection1; sqlConnection1.Open(); reader = cmd.ExecuteReader(); Also how would I approach UPDATE and DELETE etc?
