System.Data.SqlClient Namespace
.NET Framework 3.0
The System.Data.SqlClient namespace is the.NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server.
The.NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server describes a collection of classes used to access a SQL Server database in the managed space. Using the SqlDataAdapter, you can fill a memory-resident DataSet that you can use to query and update the database.

| For conceptual information about using this namespace when programming with the .NET Framework, see Using the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server. Caution ADO.NET 2.0 does not support Asynchronous commands over shared memory for SQL Server 2000 or lower. However, you can force TCP instead of shared memory. You can do that by prefixing tcp: to the server name in the connection string or you can use localhost. |
| Class | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | SqlBulkCopy | Lets you efficiently bulk load a SQL Server table with data from another source. |
![]() | SqlBulkCopyColumnMapping | Defines the mapping between a column in a SqlBulkCopy instance's data source and a column in the instance's destination table. |
![]() | SqlBulkCopyColumnMappingCollection | Collection of SqlBulkCopyColumnMapping objects that inherits from CollectionBase. |
![]() | SqlClientFactory | Represents a set of methods for creating instances of the System.Data.SqlClient provider's implementation of the data source classes. |
![]() | SqlClientMetaDataCollectionNames | Provides a list of constants for use with the GetSchema method to retrieve metadata collections. |
![]() | SqlClientPermission | Enables the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server to help make sure that a user has a security level sufficient to access a data source. |
![]() | SqlClientPermissionAttribute | Associates a security action with a custom security attribute. |
![]() | SqlCommand | Represents a Transact-SQL statement or stored procedure to execute against a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlCommandBuilder | Automatically generates single-table commands that are used to reconcile changes made to a DataSet with the associated SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlConnection | Represents an open connection to a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlConnectionStringBuilder | Provides a simple way to create and manage the contents of connection strings used by the SqlConnection class. |
![]() | SqlDataAdapter | Represents a set of data commands and a database connection that are used to fill the DataSet and update a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlDataReader | Provides a way of reading a forward-only stream of rows from a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SQLDebugging | Included to support debugging applications. Not intended for direct use. |
![]() | SqlDependency | The SqlDependency object represents a query notification dependency between an application and an instance of SQL Server 2005. An application can create a SqlDependency object and register to receive notifications via the OnChangeEventHandler event handler. |
![]() | SqlError | Collects information relevant to a warning or error returned by SQL Server. |
![]() | SqlErrorCollection | Collects all errors generated by the .NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlException | The exception that is thrown when SQL Server returns a warning or error. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlInfoMessageEventArgs | Provides data for the InfoMessage event. |
![]() | SqlNotificationEventArgs | Represents the set of arguments passed to the notification event handler. |
![]() | SqlParameter | Represents a parameter to a SqlCommand and optionally its mapping to DataSet columns. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlParameterCollection | Represents a collection of parameters associated with a SqlCommand and their respective mappings to columns in a DataSet. This class cannot be inherited. |
![]() | SqlRowsCopiedEventArgs | Represents the set of arguments passed to the SqlRowsCopiedEventHandler. |
![]() | SqlRowUpdatedEventArgs | Provides data for the RowUpdated event. |
![]() | SqlRowUpdatingEventArgs | Provides data for the RowUpdating event. |
![]() | SqlTransaction | Represents a Transact-SQL transaction to be made in a SQL Server database. This class cannot be inherited. |
| Delegate | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | OnChangeEventHandler | Handles the OnChange event that is fired when a notification is received for any of the commands associated with a SqlDependency object. |
![]() | SqlInfoMessageEventHandler | Represents the method that will handle the InfoMessage event of a SqlConnection. |
![]() | SqlRowsCopiedEventHandler | Represents the method that handles the SqlRowsCopied event of a SqlBulkCopy. |
![]() | SqlRowUpdatedEventHandler | Represents the method that will handle the RowUpdated event of a SqlDataAdapter. |
![]() | SqlRowUpdatingEventHandler | Represents the method that will handle the RowUpdating event of a SqlDataAdapter. |
| Enumeration | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | SqlBulkCopyOptions | Bitwise flag that specifies one or more options to use with an instance of SqlBulkCopy. |
![]() | SqlNotificationInfo | This enumeration provides additional information about the different notifications that can be received by the dependency event handler. |
![]() | SqlNotificationSource | Indicates the source of the notification received by the dependency event handler. |
![]() | SqlNotificationType | Describes the different notification types that can be received by an OnChangeEventHandler event handler through the SqlNotificationEventArgs parameter. |
