I have this table called WeeklySales with 2 columns, DateandTime and Sales. Now, I have 3 textbox on my form. I wanted to get the latest value that was added on the table so I have this string.
string sql = "SELECT Sales FROM database.weeklysales ORDER BY DateandTime DESC LIMIT 3";
Now, I have this database(lets say that month is the date),
DateandTime | Sales
March | $300
February | $500
January | $400
and get this result with that string:
Sales
$300
$500
$400
Now, I wanted to put the first row into first textbox, then second row to second textbox and so on... Now, I do not know what to out in inside the Datareader...
try
{
con.Open();
using (reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
{
first.Text = ?
second.Text = ?
third.Text = ?
}
}
finally
{
con.Close();
}
I have searched but they only get the first row unfortunately.
Since you only have 3 text boxes to fill - no loop just advance the reader manually.
MySqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
dr.Read();
first.Text = dr.GetValue(0).ToString();
dr.Read();
second.Text = dr.GetValue(0).ToString();
dr.Read();
third.Text = dr.GetValue(0).ToString();
