'Declaration
 
Public Shadows Property SelectCommand As ExactTargetCommand

public new ExactTargetCommand SelectCommand {get; set;}

Property Value

A ExactTargetCommand that is used during a fill operation to select records from the data source for placement in the System.Data.DataSet.

Remarks

When SelectCommand is assigned to a previously created ExactTargetCommand, the ExactTargetCommand is not cloned. Instead, the SelectCommand maintains a reference to the previously created ExactTargetCommand object.

If SelectCommand does not return any rows, no tables are added to the System.Data.DataSet, and no exception is raised.

This property supports the InterForm technology.

Example

The following example creates a ExactTargetDataAdapter, sets some of its properties, retrieves data from a table, and displays it.

csharp

public void CreateDataAdapter(ExactTargetConnection exactTargetConnection)
{
  ExactTargetDataAdapter myAdapter = new ExactTargetDataAdapter();
  myAdapter.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey;
  DataSet myDataSet = new DataSet();
  myAdapter.SelectCommand = new ExactTargetCommand("SELECT ID, Name FROM Email", exactTargetConnection);
  myAdapter.Fill(myDataSet,"Email");
  //Get all data from all tables within the dataset
  foreach(DataTable myTable in myDataSet.Tables)
  {
    foreach(DataRow myRow in myTable.Rows)
    {
      foreach (DataColumn myColumn in myTable.Columns)
      {
        Console.Write(myRow[myColumn]+"\t");
      }
      Console.WriteLine();
    }
    Console.WriteLine();
  }
}

Visual Basic

Public Sub CreateDataAdapter(ByVal exactTargetConnection As ExactTargetConnection)
  Dim myAdapter As ExactTargetDataAdapter = New ExactTargetDataAdapter
  myAdapter.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey
  Dim myDataSet As DataSet = New DataSet
  myAdapter.SelectCommand = New ExactTargetCommand("SELECT ID, Name FROM Email", exactTargetConnection)
  myAdapter.Fill(myDataSet, "Email")
  Dim myTable As DataTable
  Dim myRow As DataRow
  Dim myColumn As DataColumn
  ' Get all data from all tables within the dataset
  For Each myTable In myDataSet.Tables
    For Each myRow In myTable.Rows
      For Each myColumn In myTable.Columns
        Console.Write(myRow(myColumn) & Chr(9))
      Next myColumn
      Console.WriteLine()
    Next myRow
    Console.WriteLine()
  Next myTable
End Sub
