Examples

The following example demonstrates the use of the Prepare method.

private static void SqlCommandPrepareEx(string connectionString)
{
    using (SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(connectionString))
    {
        connection.Open();
        SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(null, connection);

        // Create and prepare an SQL statement.
        command.CommandText =
            "INSERT INTO Region (RegionID, RegionDescription) " +
            "VALUES (@id, @desc)";
        SqlParameter idParam = new SqlParameter("@id", SqlDbType.Int, 0);
        SqlParameter descParam =
            new SqlParameter("@desc", SqlDbType.Text, 100);
        idParam.Value = 20;
        descParam.Value = "First Region";
        command.Parameters.Add(idParam);
        command.Parameters.Add(descParam);

        // Call Prepare after setting the Commandtext and Parameters.
        command.Prepare();
        command.ExecuteNonQuery();

        // Change parameter values and call ExecuteNonQuery.
        command.Parameters[0].Value = 21;
        command.Parameters[1].Value = "Second Region";
        command.ExecuteNonQuery();
    }
}

Private Sub SqlCommandPrepareEx(ByVal connectionString As String)
    Using connection As New SqlConnection(connectionString)
        connection.Open()
        Dim command As New SqlCommand("", connection)

        ' Create and prepare an SQL statement.
        command.CommandText = _
           "INSERT INTO Region (RegionID, RegionDescription) " & _
           "VALUES (@id, @desc)"
        Dim idParam As SqlParameter = _
            New SqlParameter("@id", SqlDbType.Int, 0)
        Dim descParam As SqlParameter = _
            New SqlParameter("@desc", SqlDbType.Text, 100)
        idParam.Value = 20
        descParam.Value = "First Region"
        command.Parameters.Add(idParam)
        command.Parameters.Add(descParam)

        ' Call Prepare after setting the Commandtext and Parameters.
        command.Prepare()
        command.ExecuteNonQuery()

        ' Change parameter values and call ExecuteNonQuery.
        command.Parameters(0).Value = 21
        command.Parameters(1).Value = "Second Region"
        command.ExecuteNonQuery()
    End Using
End Sub

Remarks

If CommandType is set to StoredProcedure, the call to Prepare should succeed, although it may cause a no-op.

Before you call Prepare, specify the data type of each parameter in the statement to be prepared. For each parameter that has a variable length data type, you must set the Size property to the maximum size needed. Prepare returns an error if these conditions are not met.

Note

If the database context is changed by executing the Transact-SQL USE <database> statement, or by calling the ChangeDatabase method, then Prepare must be called a second time.

If you call an Execute method after calling Prepare, any parameter value that is larger than the value specified by the Size property is automatically truncated to the original specified size of the parameter, and no truncation errors are returned.

Output parameters (whether prepared or not) must have a user-specified data type. If you specify a variable length data type, you must also specify the maximum Size.

Prior to Visual Studio 2010, Prepare threw an exception. Beginning in Visual Studio 2010, this method does not throw an exception.
