Folk!
How to programattically check if null value exists in database table (using stored procedure)?
I know it's possble in the Query Analyzer (see last SQL query batch statements)?
But how can I pass null value as parameter to the database stored procedure programattically using C#?
Although I can check for empty column (the following code passes string.Empty as parameter but how to pass null value?), I cannot check for null value in the following code snippet:
SQL Queries: -
USE [master]
-
GO
-
-
IF EXISTS (SELECT name FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'ExampleDatabase')
-
DROP DATABASE [ExampleDatabase];
-
GO
-
-
CREATE DATABASE [ExampleDatabase];
-
GO
-
-
USE [ExampleDatabase];
-
GO
-
-
IF EXISTS (SELECT NAME FROM SYS.TABLES WHERE NAME = 'ExampleTable')
-
DROP TABLE dbo.ExampleTable;
-

-
-

-
dbo.ExampleTable

-
);

INSERT INTO dbo.ExampleTable
