Creating a command that uses SQL to edit a database You can use an ASP command object that uses a SQL statement to insert, update, or delete records in a database.
To create the command object:
In , open the ASP page that will run the command.
Open the Server Behaviors panel (Window > Server Behaviors), click the plus
(+) button, and choose Command.
The Command dialog box appears.
Enter a name for the command, choose a connection to the database containing
the records you want to edit, and choose the editing operation you want the
command to perform—Insert, Update, or Delete.
starts the SQL statement for you based on the type of operation
you choose. For example, here’s the dialog box after choosing Insert:
Complete the SQL statement.
For information on writing SQL statements that modify databases, consult a Transact-SQL
manual.
Use the Variables area to define any SQL variables.
For example, below is an Insert statement that contains three SQL variables.
The values of these variables are provided by URL parameters passed to the page,
as defined in the Run-time Value column of the Variables area.
After you close the dialog box, inserts ASP code in your page that, when run on the server, creates a command that inserts, updates, or deletes records in the database.
By default, the code sets the Prepared property of the Command object to true, which makes the application server reuse a single compiled version of the object every time the command is run. To change this setting, switch to Code view and change the Prepared property to false.
In the above example, next you would probably create a page with an HTML form so users could enter record data. The HTML form would contain three text fields (txtFirstName, txtLastName, and txtDept) and a submit button. As well, the form would use the GET method and submit the text field values to the page containing your command.
