Examples

The following example creates an OdbcParameter and sets some of its properties.

Public Sub CreateMyProc(connection As OdbcConnection)  

   Dim command As OdbcCommand = connection.CreateCommand()  
   command.CommandText = "{ call MyProc(?,?,?) }"  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Int).Value = 1  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Decimal).Value = 2  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Decimal).Value = 3  

End Sub  

public void CreateMyProc(OdbcConnection connection)   
{  
   OdbcCommand command = connection.CreateCommand();  
   command.CommandText = "{ call MyProc(?,?,?) }";  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Int).Value = 1;  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Decimal).Value = 2;  
   command.Parameters.Add("", OdbcType.Decimal).Value = 3;  
}  

Remarks

If the ParameterDirection is Output, and execution of the associated OdbcCommand does not return a value, the OdbcParameter will contain a null value. Null values are handled using the DBNull class.

Output, InputOut, and ReturnValue parameters returned by calling ExecuteReader cannot be accessed until you call Close or Dispose on the OdbcDataReader.
