SQL Server 2008: Executenonquery not returning number of rows affected












0















From C# I launch an update query using (a stored procedure):



command.ExecuteNonQuery(...);


Then in the stored procedure, I build a dynamic query and execute using sp_executesql:



    DECLARE @ParmDefinition NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @pParam1 NUMERIC(18,0)
DECLARE @pParam2 BIGINT

SET @ParmDefinition = N'@Param1 numeric(18,0), @Param2 bigint'
SET @pParam1 = @Param1
SET @pParam2 = @Param2

DECLARE @SQLString nvarchar(max)= 'UPDATE ' + @MyServer + @MyDB + '.[dbo].[MyTable] ' +
'SET SomeField= @Param1 ' +
'WHERE F1= @Param2', @rowcnt INT;

EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLString, @ParmDefinition, @Param1 = @pParam1, @Param2 = @pParam2
SELECT @rowcnt = @@ROWCOUNT


In C# ExecuteNonQuery is returning -1. I want to get the number of rows affected.



What's the problem?

  • Please, post the C# code that call the SP.... as i understand your question, @rowcnt must be defined as an output parameter.

  • I have already solved. The problem was that at the beginning of the stored procedure I had put below line: SET NOCOUNT ON. By removing this line, now is working, the number of rows affected is working. Thx.

I have solved it.



The culprit was the line I had put at the beginning of the stored procedure:



SET NOCOUNT ON;



By removing above line, now it is working perfectly, the number of rows affected is returned correctly to C#.
