ServerConnection.ExecuteNonQuery Method (String, ExecutionTypes)

  • Article

Executes a statement with the specified execution options that does not return a result set.

Namespace: Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common
Assembly: Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo (in microsoft.sqlserver.connectioninfo.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Function ExecuteNonQuery ( _
    sqlCommand As String, _
    executionType As ExecutionTypes _
) As Integer

public int ExecuteNonQuery (
    string sqlCommand,
    ExecutionTypes executionType
)

public:
int ExecuteNonQuery (
    String^ sqlCommand, 
    ExecutionTypes executionType
)

public int ExecuteNonQuery (
    String sqlCommand, 
    ExecutionTypes executionType
)

public function ExecuteNonQuery (
    sqlCommand : String, 
    executionType : ExecutionTypes
) : int

Parameters

  • sqlCommand
    A String value that specifies the Transact-SQL command to be executed.
  • executionType
    An ExecutionTypes object value that specifies the execution options for the Transact-SQL statement.

Return Value

An Int32 value that specifies the total number of rows affected by the Transact-SQL command for UPDATE, INSERT, and DELETE statements. For all other types of statements, the return value is -1.

Remarks

The Transact-SQL command is typically a data definition language (DDL) statement or stored procedure that affects the server settings. The Text property of the CapturedSql object can be used as the sqlCommand parameter to allow execution of a captured Transact-SQL statement. The sqlCommand parameter contains a single Transact-SQL statement.

Only SQLCMD commands are recognized by the ExecuteNonQuery method. If the sqlCommand parameter contains a statement that is not a SQLCMD command then the method fails and an ExecutionFailureException exception is raised, unless the executionType parameter has been set to include the ExecutionTypes.ContinueOnError value.

This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 2.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework.

Thread Safety
