Question

I want the statement update the database by 1 each time I enter a specific page..But it seems to update it by 3 🙁

   public static void UpdateThreadView(int threadID)
{
    StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
    sb.Append("UPDATE  dbo.Threads");
    sb.Append(" SET Views=(Views+1)");
    sb.Append(" WHERE ThreadsID=@ThreadID");

    string myConnectionString = AllQuestionsPresented.connectionString;

    using (SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection(myConnectionString))
    {
        myConnection.Open();
        SqlCommand sqlCommand = new SqlCommand(sb.ToString(), myConnection);
        sqlCommand.Parameters.Add("@ThreadID", SqlDbType.Int);
        sqlCommand.Parameters["@ThreadID"].Value = threadID;
        sqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();

    }
}

Set a breakpoint in your code and run in the visual studio debugger.

I’m betting this gets called 3 times due to a combination of postback and events.

Alternatively you could use SQL Profiler to see if multiple updates happen.
