The parameterized query expects the parameter which was not supplied
SqlSql Servervb.netSql Problem Overview
I'm having a problem with my code:
Private Sub TextBox2_TextChanged(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles TextBox2.TextChanged
list.Items.Clear()
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM borrow where (Department LIKE '%" & TextBox2.Text & "%')"
cmd.Connection = con
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
con.Open()
rd = cmd.ExecuteReader()
If rd.HasRows = True Then
While rd.Read()
Dim listview As New ListViewItem
listview.Text = rd("ID").ToString
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Department").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Purpose").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Items_Details").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Requested_by").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Approved_by").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Date").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Status").ToString)
listview.SubItems.Add(rd("Date_Returned").ToString)
list.Items.Add(listview)
End While
End If
con.Close()
Once I typed in the string in the textbox to search for an item I get this error:
> The parameterized query '(@Parameter1 nvarchar(4000))SELECT * FROM > borrow where (Departme' expects the parameter '@Parameter1', which was > not supplied.
Can anyone help me?
Sql Solutions
Solution 1 - Sql
If you pass null value to parameter,you will get this error even after you add the parameter so try to check the value and if it null then use DBNull.Value
This will work
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Department", SqlDbType.VarChar)
If (TextBox2.Text = Nothing) Then
cmd.Parameters("@Department").Value = DBNull.Value
Else
cmd.Parameters("@Department").Value = TextBox2.Text
End If
This will convert the null values from the object layer to DBNull values that are acceptable to the database.
Solution 2 - Sql
Your website is in serious danger of being hacked.
Read up on SQL Injection and how to prevent it in .NET
Your query problem is the least of your concerns right now.
But.....
@Misnomer's solution is close but not quite there:
Change your query to this:
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM borrow where (Department LIKE '%@DepartmentText%')"
and add parameters this way (or the way that @Misnomer does):
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@DepartmentText",TextBox2.Text)
The important difference is that you need to change your CommandText.
Solution 3 - Sql
Building on and simplifying ravidev's answer:
The VB.NET shorthand is:
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Department", IF(TextBox2.Text, DBNull.Value))
The C# shorthand is:
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Department", (object)TextBox2.Text ?? DBNull.Value)
Solution 4 - Sql
Try adding parameters like this -
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Department", SqlDbType.VarChar)
cmd.Parameters("@Department").Value = TextBox2.Text
and change your command text to what @Abe Miessler does he is right i just thought you will figure it out.
Solution 5 - Sql
If you are writing from a DataGridView control to your database, make sure there is no empty row. Set 'Allow User to add Rows' to false; it truncates the unnecessary last empty row.
Solution 6 - Sql
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
conn.Open();
//SelectCustomerById(int x);
comboBoxEx1.Items.Clear();
SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand("spSelectCustomerByID", conn);
//comm.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("cust_name", cust_name));
//comm.CommandText = "spSelectCustomerByID";
comm.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("cust_id", SqlDbType.Int));
comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
comm.ExecuteNonQuery();
SqlDataAdapter sdap = new SqlDataAdapter(comm);
DataSet dset = new DataSet();
sdap.Fill(dset, "cust_registrations");
if (dset.Tables["cust_registrations"].Rows.Count > 0)
{
comboBoxEx1.Items.Add("cust_registrations").ToString();
}
comboBoxEx1.DataSource = dset;
comboBoxEx1.DisplayMember = "cust_name";
