    KeyFields Property (SQLiteCommandBuilder)
    In This Topic
    Gets or sets string containing list of key field names separated by semicolon. They are used to generate update commands.
    Syntax
    'Declaration
     
    Public Shadows Property KeyFields As String
    public new string KeyFields {get; set;}

    Property Value

    The string containing list of key field names separated by semicolon.
    Remarks

    This property is used when the ConflictOption property is set to OverwriteChanges, otherwise all columns will be used in the WHERE clause.

    If KeyFields is nonempty, its value is used as the list of columns for the WHERE clause. If KeyFields is empty, the primary key columns are used.

    Example
    The following example demonstrates how UPDATE and DELETE statements are generated.
    public void UseKeyFields(string connectionString) {
    
            SQLiteConnection conn = new SQLiteConnection(connectionString);
            conn.Open();
    
            SQLiteDataAdapter adapter = new SQLiteDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM Dept", conn);
            SQLiteCommandBuilder commBuilder = new SQLiteCommandBuilder(adapter);
    
            commBuilder.ConflictOption = ConflictOption.OverwriteChanges;
    
            commBuilder.KeyFields = "DeptNo, DName";
    
            string updateComm = commBuilder.GetUpdateCommand().CommandText;
            string deleteComm = commBuilder.GetDeleteCommand().CommandText;
    
            Console.WriteLine(updateComm);
            Console.WriteLine(deleteComm);
            conn.Close();
    }
    Public Sub UseKeyFields(ByVal connectionString As String)
            Dim conn As SQLiteConnection = New SQLiteConnection(connectionString)
            conn.Open()
    
            Dim adapter As SQLiteDataAdapter = New SQLiteDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM Dept", conn)
            Dim commBuilder As SQLiteCommandBuilder = New SQLiteCommandBuilder(adapter)
    
            commBuilder.ConflictOption = ConflictOption.OverwriteChanges
    
            commBuilder.KeyFields = "DeptNo, DName"
    
            Dim updateComm As String = commBuilder.GetUpdateCommand().CommandText
            Dim deleteComm As String = commBuilder.GetDeleteCommand().CommandText
    
            Console.WriteLine(updateComm)
            Console.WriteLine(deleteComm)
            conn.Close()
    End Sub
