Property Value

A SqlCeCommand used during Update to update records in the data source that correspond to modified rows in the DataSet.

Remarks

During Update, if this property is not set and primary key information is present in the DataSet, the UpdateCommand can be generated automatically. To have this property generated automatically, set the SelectCommand property and use the SqlCeCommandBuilder. Then, any additional commands that you do not set are generated by the SqlCeCommandBuilder. This generation logic requires key column information to be present in the DataSet.

When UpdateCommand is assigned to a previously-created SqlCeCommand, the SqlCeCommand is not cloned. The UpdateCommand maintains a reference to the previously-created SqlCeCommand object.

Note

If execution of this command returns rows, these rows may be merged with the DataSet, depending on how you set the UpdatedRowSource property of the SqlCeCommand object.

Example

The following example creates a SqlCeDataAdapter, modifies a dataset, and then calls the Update method to update the data source.

Dim cmd As SqlCeCommand = Nothing
Dim adp As SqlCeDataAdapter = Nothing

Try
    adp = New SqlCeDataAdapter()
    Dim conn As New SqlCeConnection("Data Source = MyDatabase.sdf")

    ' Create the SelectCommand
    '
    cmd = conn.CreateCommand()
    cmd.CommandText = "SELECT [Employee ID], [First Name], [Last Name] FROM Employees"
    adp.SelectCommand = cmd

    ' Create the InsertCommand
    '
    cmd = conn.CreateCommand()
    cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO Employees ([First Name],[Last Name]) VALUES (@first, @last)"

    Dim p As SqlCeParameter = Nothing

    p = cmd.Parameters.Add("@first", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 10, "First Name")
    p.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original

    p = cmd.Parameters.Add("@last", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 20, "Last Name")
    p.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original

    adp.InsertCommand = cmd

    ' Create the UpdateCommand
    '
    cmd = conn.CreateCommand()
    cmd.CommandText = "UPDATE Employees SET [First Name] = @first, " + _
        "[Last Name] = @last WHERE [Employee ID] = @employeeID"

    p = cmd.Parameters.Add("@first", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 10, "First Name")
    p.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Current

    p = cmd.Parameters.Add("@last", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 20, "Last Name")
    p.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Current

    p = cmd.Parameters.Add("@employeeID", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 20, "Employee ID")
    p.SourceVersion = DataRowVersion.Original

    adp.UpdateCommand = cmd

    ' Populate the dataset with the results from the SELECT statement
    '
    Dim ds As New DataSet()
    adp.Fill(ds)

    ' Modify the dataset
    '
    MessageBox.Show("Number of rows: " & ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count)

    ' Insert some rows
    '
    ds.Tables(0).Rows.Add(New Object() {Nothing, "Nancy", "Smith")
    ds.Tables(0).Rows.Add(New Object() {Nothing, "Joe", "Clayton")

    ' Update some rows
    '
    ds.Tables(0).Rows(1)(1) = "David"
    ds.Tables(0).Rows(1)(2) = "Johnson"

    ' This will execute two INSERT and one UPDATE statements
    '
    adp.Update(ds.Tables(0))
Catch e As Exception
    MessageBox.Show(e.Message)
Finally
    If Not Nothing Is adp.SelectCommand Then
        adp.SelectCommand.Dispose()
    End If
    If Not Nothing Is adp.InsertCommand Then
        adp.InsertCommand.Dispose()
    End If
End Try
