Parameters

  • name
    The name of the column.

Return Value

The zero-based column ordinal.

Exceptions

Exception type Condition

IndexOutOfRangeException

The name specified is not a valid column name.

InvalidOperationException

The operation is not valid. The SqlCeDataReader may be positioned after the last row in the result set.

Remarks

GetOrdinal performs a case-sensitive lookup first. If it fails, a second case-insensitive search is made.

Because ordinal-based lookups are more efficient than named lookups, it is inefficient to call GetOrdinal within a loop. Save time by calling GetOrdinal once and assigning the results to an integer variable for use within the loop.
