How to execute a update statement using Oracle ODP.Net in C#

Question

I am using Oracle.DataAccess.Client to work with Oracle database in my ASP.Net application. There is no help documentation in

Answer 1

I will need to check the exact syntax, but here is some quick code off the top of my head

using (OracleConnection con = new OracleConnection(...))
{
  con.Open();
  OracleCommand cmd = con.CreateCommand();
  cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
  cmd.CommandText = "update table set col1 = :param1, col2 = :param2 where key = :keyValue";
  cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("param1", 1);
  cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("param2", "Text data");
  cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("keyValue", "1");
  cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}

The above creates a command object sets the command up to execute an SQL Update statement, in this example I show one way to setup a parameterized query, you should always go with a parameterized query. Once the command is setup you just call ExecuteNonQuery to actually execute the command.
