Hi everyone im actually working on an application which migrates the datas that are present in a xml file to my database.. Im coding it on c#.net.. The issue is in my xml file we have customers name which is fetched from the xml file and then inserted into the database.. so most of my customers name have appostrophe(') in their name so during execution of the insert query it throws me odbc exception the insert query that i use is as follows:
insert into EACS_User_1 values('"+uf_Id+"','"+uf_Title+"','"+uf_FirstName+"','"+uf_MiddleName+"','"+uf_LastName+"','"+uf_PhoneNumber+"','"+uf_MobileNumber+"','"+uf_EmailID+"')
here the first name contains appostrophe say for example the name is Moh’d Husam how do i insert such names... Do guide me...
Thanx in advance..

Tash

Hi,
The resolution to your problem and also the approach to avoid sql injection is to use prepared statements. Have a look at this blog (especially the February 18 2006). There you can find an example how to do this in c#.

Well e.g. instead of uf_id you write: uf_id.Replace("'","''").
That's it. But again, this is not the way you should insert data into your sql server.
Post the code where you execute the statement and we can show you where to put in the prepared statement.

Okay, so change the line where you build the command like this:
<br />
<br />
cmd = new OdbcCommand("insert into EACS_User_1 VALUES (@Id,@Title,@FirstName,...)", con);<br />
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Id", uf_id);<br />
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Title", uf_Title);<br />
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@FirstName", uf_FirstName);<br />
.<br />
.<br />
.<br />
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()<br />
<br />
That should do the work.

Sebastian

Actually i only find cmd.parameters.add i mean i dont get addwithvalue... should i include anything??? is it because i am using VS2003???
Thanx in advance..

You are using .NET 2.0, that is why there is no AddWithValue-method. Instead of AddWithValue use Add like this:
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("@Id", uf_Id));

I did as u said but i receive the following Exception:

Hmmm... try to rewrite to
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("Id", uf_Id));
|
|
|
|
|
even after making the changes u said i receive xactly the same exception once again... must i change any thing in the insert query???
thanx in advance..

Ah I remember the good old days. You have to replace all the names with @ within the statement with ?. So your statement should look like this:
...VALUES (?,?,?,...
Be sure that you add the parameters within the same sequence as said in the statement.
|
|
|
|
|
U mean i have to replace @Id by ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now My code is as follows:
rdr.Close();
Console.WriteLine("{0}",uf_Id);
cmd = new OdbcCommand("insert into EACS_User_1 values(?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?,?)",con);
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Id));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Title));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_FirstName));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_MiddleName));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_LastName));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Type));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_PhoneNumber));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_MobileNumber));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_EmailID));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Branch));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Department));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_NoOfLoginAttempts));
cmd.Parameters.Add(new OdbcParameter("?",uf_Status));
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
And i receive the following exception...
System.Data.Odbc.OdbcException: ERROR [21S01] [INTERSOLV][ODBC SQL Server driver][SQL Server]Insert error: column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition.
at System.Data.Odbc.OdbcConnection.HandleError(HandleRef hrHandle, SQL_HANDLE hType, RETCODE retcode)
at System.Data.Odbc.OdbcCommand.ExecuteReaderObject(CommandBehavior behavior, String method)
at System.Data.Odbc.OdbcCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
at ConsoleApplication1.Class1.perform() in c:\documents and settings\900846\my documents\visual studio projects\consoleapplication1\class1.cs:line 635
Thanx in advance...

As the error message is saying the number of ? does not match the number of columns. So you got two options:
1) Write a ? for every column that exists in your table
2) Include the column names in your statement.
I would suggest using the second option, because it is more fail-safe than the first option. Rewrite your statement to include the column names:
INSERT INTO EACS_User_1 (Id, Title, ...) VALUES (...

Hmm did you checked that the database character set is identical to the one you use within your client app? Check the database char set by using the management studio to administer your sql database.
So you choosed option one and added the columns to your statement. This is not the best way because next time you add a column to the table you have to change your code too...
|
|
|
|
|
u mean the datatype that is assigned to that particular column in my database....
|
|
|
|
|
No, like the error is saying the char set of your client app does not match the server. Check your local encoding with Encoding.Default and the code page used within the database (connect to the server and check the properties of the database with the management studio).
To get the local encoding use Encoding.Default:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.text.encoding.default.aspx[^]

Thanx a lot my issue is solved... actually the name had a symbol (’) and i thought it to be an apostrophe now i replace it with (') in my insert query.. The prepared statement which u specified also works fine... thanx for ur guidance.. Thanx alot...

Tash

public static class Util
{
public static void AddParameters(SqlCommand cmd, params object[] args)
{
for (int i = 0; i < args.Length; i += 2)
{
cmd.Parameters.Add(GetParameter((string)args[i], args[i + 1]));
}
}
public SqlParameter GetParameter(string name, object value)
{
SqlParameter p = new SqlParameter();
p.ParameterName = name;
p.SqlDbType = GetDbType(value);
p.Direction = ParameterDirection.Input;
p.Value = value;
return p;
}
public SqlDbType GetDbType(object value)
{
if (value == null) throw new ArgumentNullException();
if (t == typeof(int)) return SqlDbType.Int;
if (t == typeof(string)) return SqlDbType.NVarChar;
if (t == typeof(DateTime)) return SqlDbType.DateTime;
if (t == typeof(Boolean)) return SqlDbType.Bit;
if (t == typeof(byte[])) return SqlDbType.Image;
if (t == typeof(SqlBinary)) return SqlDbType.Binary;
if (t == typeof(Guid)) return SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier;
if (t == typeof(Int64)) return SqlDbType.BigInt;
throw new NotSupportedException("Missing support for type " + t.FullName + ".");
}
}
A little bit of code, but you can now easily use it many places, for example like this:
SqlCommand getInsertCommand(string col1, int col2)
{
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("INSERT [Table] VALUES (@col1, @col2);");
Util.AddParameters(cmd,
"@col1", col1,
"@col2", col2);
return cmd;
}
