  • Reference

Definition

Namespace:
System.Web.UI.WebControls
Assembly:
System.Web.dll

Performs an update operation using the UpdateCommand SQL string, any parameters that are in the UpdateParameters collection, and the values that are in the specified keys, values, and oldValues collections.

public:
 int Update(System::Collections::IDictionary ^ keys, System::Collections::IDictionary ^ values, System::Collections::IDictionary ^ oldValues);
public int Update (System.Collections.IDictionary keys, System.Collections.IDictionary values, System.Collections.IDictionary oldValues);
override this.Update : System.Collections.IDictionary * System.Collections.IDictionary * System.Collections.IDictionary -> int
Public Function Update (keys As IDictionary, values As IDictionary, oldValues As IDictionary) As Integer

Parameters

keys
IDictionary

An IDictionary of primary keys to use with the UpdateCommand property to perform the update database operation. If there are no keys associated with the query or if the UpdateCommand is not a parameterized SQL query, pass null.

values
IDictionary

An IDictionary of values to use with the UpdateCommand property to perform the update database operation. If there are no parameters associated with the query or if the UpdateCommand is not a parameterized SQL query, pass null.

oldValues
IDictionary

An IDictionary that represents the original values in the database. If there are no parameters associated with the query or if the UpdateCommand is not a parameterized SQL query, pass null.

Returns

Int32

A value that represents the number of rows updated in the underlying database.

Exceptions

InvalidOperationException

The SqlDataSource cannot establish a connection with the underlying data source.

NotSupportedException

The CanUpdate property is false.

Examples

The following code example demonstrates how to use a SqlDataSource control to display data in a DropDownList control and update data when the Submit button is clicked. The UpdateCommand property is set with a parameterized SQL statement and two ControlParameter parameters are added to the UpdateParameters collection. When the Submit button is clicked, the OnClick event is handled to call the Update method explicitly.
