C# code

Hi guys ,

I wrote some button code to updating data column.

Actually, what I'm trying to do is when I click the Button update it will copy over what I selected in the select status dropbox to the textbox Current status then update the column.

here is my code and also I attached screenshot.

//update button updating statu send email
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            string conn = "Data Source=srv-db-02;Initial Catalog=rmsmasterdbtest;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=test;Password=masterB4";
            string Query = "update rmsmasterdbtest.dbo.serial set serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ,serialnumber3='" + this.txtstatus.Text + "' where serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ;";

            
            SqlConnection Myconn = new SqlConnection(conn);
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(Query, Myconn);
            SqlDataReader Reader;

            try
            {
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 0)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "OK";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 1)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Damaged";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 2)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repair in Progress";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 3)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repaired";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 4)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Loaner";
                }

                combStatus.Items.Add(txtstatus.Text);



                try
                {
                    Myconn.Open();
                    Reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                    MessageBox.Show("Updated Status");



                    while (Reader.Read())
                    {

                    }




                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
            }
            finally
            {
                Myconn.Close();
            }

Are you getting error messages or is it not updating the data?

The one thing that I see is that you should test the textbox values (this.txtsn.Text for example) to make sure that they have a value before sending them in a query.

I don't get any error message I just have to click twice on the update button to get it update in the database. the first click don't update the database.

 string conn = "Data Source=srv-db-02;Initial Catalog=rmsmasterdbtest;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=test;Password=masterB4";
            string Query = "update rmsmasterdbtest.dbo.serial set serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ,serialnumber3='" + this.txtstatus.Text + "' where serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ;";

            
            SqlConnection Myconn = new SqlConnection(conn);
            SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(Query, Myconn);
            SqlDataReader Reader;

           
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 0)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "OK";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 1)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Damaged";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 2)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repair in Progress";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 3)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repaired";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 4)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Loaner";
                }

                combStatus.Items.Add(this.txtstatus.Text);



                try
                {
                    Myconn.Open();
                    Reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                    MessageBox.Show("Updated Status");

Can you try with this one?

//update button updating statu send email
        private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            string conn = "Data Source=srv-db-02;Initial Catalog=rmsmasterdbtest;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=test;Password=masterB4";

            SqlConnection Myconn = new SqlConnection(conn);

            
            try
            {
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 0)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "OK";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 1)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Damaged";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 2)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repair in Progress";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 3)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Repaired";
                }
                if (combStatus.SelectedIndex == 4)
                {
                    txtstatus.Text = "Loaner";
                }

                combStatus.Items.Add(txtstatus.Text);



                try
                {
                    string Query = "update rmsmasterdbtest.dbo.serial set serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ,serialnumber3='" + this.txtstatus.Text + "' where serialnumber='" + this.txtsn.Text + "' ;";
                    SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(Query, Myconn);
                    SqlDataReader Reader;


                    Myconn.Open();
                    Reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                    MessageBox.Show("Updated Status");



                    while (Reader.Read())
                    {

                    }




                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
            }
            finally
            {
                Myconn.Close();
            }

Thank you very much now it works.

I have another small issue when I select some message from the dropbox and and click update it is update the database and duplicating the combobox item

jorge_toriz

Are you working on a windows application or web application?

I need to know it because the ComboBox is different from DropDownList.
