Parameters to insert data from form into SQL database

Hi,
I'm having problem inserting and storing data from asp.net web form to
SQL database. I use the following parameters for the SqlCommand object
to do the insert:
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.FirstN",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 25))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.LastN",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 25))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.Org",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.Addr1",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.City",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.Email",
SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50))
cmdTest.Parameters("@.FirstN").Value = "FirstN"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.LastN").Value = "LastN"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Org").Value = "Org"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Addr1").Value = "Addr1"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.City").Value = "City"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Email").Value = "Email"
It seems like the value of the fields didn't get inserted when I submit
the page. All I'm getting is just the names of the fields (e.g. FirstN,
LastN), not the values themselves (e.g. John, Doe).
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
hfk0That's what you inserted. :-)
Try:
cmdTest.Parameters("@.FirstN").Value = "John"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.LastN").Value = "Doe"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Org").Value = "FLy by Night Airlines"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Addr1").Value = "123 Main St"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.City").Value = "Anytown"
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Email").Value = nospam@.nospam.com

Oh ok I get it now...I guess whatever I put within the "" is what is
inserted.
I'm also adding the following parameters:
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.State", SqlDbType.NChar, 2))
cmdTest.Parameters.Add(New SqlParameter("@.Phone", SqlDbType.NChar, 10))
cmdTest.Parameters("@.State").Value = State.SelectedItem.Value
cmdTest.Parameters("@.Phone").Value = Phone.Text
When viewing the page, somehow these two values didn't get inserted to
the database.
Did I use the wrong data type?
Thanks again,
hfk0|||I'd check the database directly with Query Analyzer (QA) if you're using SQL
2000 or SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) if you're using SQL 2005. Also,
consider using SQL Profiler to see what is being sent to SQL Server. There
could be a problem in your VB .NET code somewhere.
