Question

I need to run the below script from my vb.net app & would like to know how would I make the database name (mynewdatabase_db) a parameter?

Basically I need to run this script on certain databases so I need the database name to be dynamic.

    Dim MySqlQuery2 As String = "USE mynewdatabase_db " & _
        "TRUNCATE TABLE MyTable " & _
        " " & _
        "INSERT INTO MyTable ([MyNumber], [HTTPAlias]) VALUES (0, @MyDomainAlias1) " & _
        "INSERT INTO MyTable ([MyNumber], [HTTPAlias]) VALUES (0, @MyDomainAlias2) " & _
        "INSERT INTO MyTable ([MyNumber], [HTTPAlias]) VALUES (0, @MyDomainAlias3) "

    Using cmd2 = New SqlCommand(MySqlQuery2.ToString, myConnection)
        cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MyDomainAlias1", MyDomainName)
        cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MyDomainAlias2", "www." & MyDomainName)
        cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("@MyDomainAlias3", MyDomainName & "." & MyTempDomainName)
        cmd2.ExecuteNonQuery()

    End Using

Thanks in advance 😉

I would make it part of your connection string(s). That way it wouldn’t be hard coded into your application.
