    ZohoBooksCommand Class
    In This Topic
    Represents a SQL statement or stored procedure to execute against Zoho Books.
    Syntax
    Remarks
    The ZohoBooksCommand class provides the following methods for executing commands against Zoho Books:
    Item Description
    ExecuteReader Executes commands that return rows.
    ExecutePageReader Returns a specific subset of rows when paging through the results of a query.
    ExecuteNonQuery Executes SQL commands such as INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE.
    ExecuteScalar Retrieves a single value (for example, an aggregate value) from a data source.

    If execution of the command results in a fatal ZohoBooksException, the ZohoBooksConnection may close. However, the user can reopen the connection and continue.

    This class supports cross-form data binding with the InterForm Technology.

    Example
    The following example uses the ExecuteReader method of ZohoBooksCommand, along with ZohoBooksDataReader and ZohoBooksConnection, to select rows from a table.
    public void ReadMyData(string myConnString)
    {
      string mySelectQuery = "SELECT AccountID, \"Account Name\" FROM Accounts";
      ZohoBooksConnection ZohoBooksConnection = new ZohoBooksConnection(myConnString);
      ZohoBooksCommand ZohoBooksCommand = new ZohoBooksCommand(mySelectQuery,ZohoBooksConnection);
      ZohoBooksConnection.Open();
      ZohoBooksDataReader ZohoBooksReader = ZohoBooksCommand.ExecuteReader();
      try
      {
        while (ZohoBooksReader.Read())
        {
          Console.WriteLine(ZohoBooksReader.GetString(0) + ", " + ZohoBooksReader.GetString(1));
        }
      }
      finally
      {
      // always call Close when done reading.
      ZohoBooksReader.Close();
      // always call Close when done reading.
      ZohoBooksConnection.Close();
      }
    }
    Public Sub ReadMyData(myConnString As String)
      Dim mySelectQuery As String = "SELECT AccountID, \"Account Name\" FROM Accounts"
      Dim ZohoBooksConnection As New ZohoBooksConnection(myConnString)
      Dim ZohoBooksCommand As New ZohoBooksCommand(mySelectQuery, ZohoBooksConnection)
      ZohoBooksConnection.Open()
      Dim ZohoBooksReader As ZohoBooksDataReader = ZohoBooksCommand.ExecuteReader()
      Try
        While ZohoBooksReader.Read()
          Console.WriteLine(ZohoBooksReader.GetString(0) + ", " _
            + ZohoBooksReader.GetString(1))
        End While
      Finally
          ' always call Close when done reading.
          ZohoBooksReader.Close()
          ' always call Close when done with connection.
          ZohoBooksConnection.Close()
      End Try
    End Sub
