Remarks

The UniDbType and DbType are linked. Therefore, setting the DbType changes the UniDbType to a supporting UniDbType.

For a list of the supported data types, see the appropriate UniDbType member.

The following example creates a UniParameter and sets some of its properties, including the DbType property.

public void CreateUniParameter()
{
  UniParameter myParameter = new UniParameter();
  myParameter.ParameterName = "DName";
  myParameter.DbType = DbType.String;
  myParameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
  myParameter.Size = 15;
}

Visual Basic

Public Sub CreateUniParameter()
  Dim myParameter As New UniParameter()
  myParameter.ParameterName = "DName"
  myParameter.DbType = DbType.String
  myParameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
  myParameter.Size = 15
End Sub
