Question

I am trying to return the result that I found in my query to the ASP.net table. How do I do that? I already have the query, I am just having trouble getting the count result back.

string configMan.ConnString['connect'].ToString(); iDB2Conn temp = new iDB2Conn string query = 'select Count(*) as total from test'; ... 

this is where I am having trouble.

This is where the SqlCommand object comes in handy.

int result = 0; using(SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) {     conn.Open();     SqlCommand sql = new SqlCommand('SELECT COUNT(*) FROM test', conn);     result = (int)sql.ExecuteScalar(); }
