returning int value from stored procedure and check it in asp.net code to validate login form

Question

What is the true sequence to make this code run as I tried many time but I don\'t get a valid result

// the code of SQL stored procedure

set ANSI_NULLS          


        

Answer 1

You're executing .ExecuteScalar() so you're expecting back a result set with a single row, single column from the stored procedure - but you're not selecting anything at the end of your stored proc!

You need to change your last line in the stored proc from

return @result

to

SELECT @result

and then it should work.
