    QuickBooksCommand Class
    In This Topic
    Represents a SQL statement or stored procedure to execute against QuickBooks.
    Syntax
    Remarks
    The QuickBooksCommand class provides the following methods for executing commands against QuickBooks:
    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 QuickBooksException, the QuickBooksConnection 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 QuickBooksCommand, along with QuickBooksDataReader and QuickBooksConnection, to select rows from a table.
    public void ReadMyData(string myConnString)
    {
      string mySelectQuery = "SELECT Id, DisplayName FROM Customer";
      QuickBooksConnection quickBooksConnection = new QuickBooksConnection(myConnString);
      QuickBooksCommand quickBooksCommand = new QuickBooksCommand(mySelectQuery,quickBooksConnection);
      quickBooksConnection.Open();
      QuickBooksDataReader quickBooksReader = quickBooksCommand.ExecuteReader();
      try
      {
        while (quickBooksReader.Read())
        {
          Console.WriteLine(quickBooksReader.GetString(0) + ", " + quickBooksReader.GetString(1));
        }
      }
      finally
      {
      // always call Close when done reading.
      quickBooksReader.Close();
      // always call Close when done reading.
      quickBooksConnection.Close();
      }
    }
    Public Sub ReadMyData(myConnString As String)
      Dim mySelectQuery As String = "SELECT Id, DisplayName FROM Customer"
      Dim quickBooksConnection As New QuickBooksConnection(myConnString)
      Dim quickBooksCommand As New QuickBooksCommand(mySelectQuery, quickBooksConnection)
      quickBooksConnection.Open()
      Dim quickBooksReader As QuickBooksDataReader = quickBooksCommand.ExecuteReader()
      Try
        While quickBooksReader.Read()
          Console.WriteLine(quickBooksReader.GetString(0) + ", " _
            + quickBooksReader.GetString(1))
        End While
      Finally
          ' always call Close when done reading.
          quickBooksReader.Close()
          ' always call Close when done with connection.
          quickBooksConnection.Close()
      End Try
    End Sub
