Example
This sample shows how to optimize reading from a data source using HasRows property.
public void FetchResults(DB2Connection db2Connection)
{
  DB2Command cmd = new DB2Command("SELECT * FROM Dept");
  cmd.FetchSize = 100;
  cmd.Connection = db2Connection;
  db2Connection.Open();
  try
  {
    DB2DataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
    if (reader.HasRows)
    {
      while (reader.Read())
      {
        for (int i=0;i<reader.FieldCount;i++)
        {
          Console.Write("\t"+reader[i]);
        }
        Console.WriteLine();
      }
    }
    else
    {
      Console.WriteLine("No rows detected.");
    }
  }
  finally
  {
    db2Connection.Close();
  }
}
Public Sub FetchResults(ByVal db2Connection As DB2Connection)
  Dim cmd As DB2Command = New DB2Command("SELECT * FROM Dept")
  cmd.FetchSize = 100
  cmd.Connection = db2Connection
  db2Connection.Open()
  Try
    Dim reader As DB2DataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
    If reader.HasRows Then
      While reader.Read()
        Dim i
        For i = 0 To reader.FieldCount - 1
          Console.Write(String.Concat(" ", reader(i)))
        Next i
        Console.WriteLine()
      End While
    Else
      Console.WriteLine("No rows detected.")
    End If
  Finally
    db2Connection.Close()
  End Try
End Sub
