Pass a datarow as input parameter in a stored procedure

Question

Hi everyone!
I wonder if anyone know how to pass a datarow (better if tipized like "tablenameRow") as input parameter for a stored procedure.
links or suggestions are welcome! (i'm newbie in .net programming, so if you can post some code i'll be really grateful!)
Thank you!

Hi,
YES!! its possible you can pass a datarow to a SP from your Dot net application.
Here below i'm going to give you an example for Desktop Application.
For Passing a datarow as Input Parameters, your SP need to support for all these parameters.
I mean, if a data row has 03 Columns. Then your procedure should be able to take 03 arguments/parameters.
--Adjust code according to your need.
--Its for C# Desktop application.
--Visual Studio Professional, Framework (2.0)
//Setting connections.
OracleConnection con=new OracleConnection("Data Source=orcl9i; user id=scott; password=tiger");
OracleComand cmd=new OracleCommand(con);
cmd.Type=CommandType.StoredProcedure; //you are useing SP
cmd.Text="my_stored_procedure"; //Mention SP name.
--if DataRow has Three columns. You need three parameters.
OracleParameter p1=new OracleParameter ();//By default parameters are input parameters.
OracleParameter p2=new OracleParameter ();
OracleParameter p3=new OracleParameter ();
//We assume that Datarow already has data in it.
p1.ParametersName="sp_var1 ";
p1.OracleDbType=OracleDbType.Varchar;
p1.Value=tablenameRow[1]; //Here DataRow object's Column1 is input.
p2.ParametersName="sp_var2 ";
p2.OracleDbType=OracleDbType.Varchar;
p2.Value=tablenameRow[2]; //Here DataRow object's Column2 is input.
p3.ParametersName="sp_var3 ";
p3.OracleDbType=OracleDbType.Varchar;
p3.Value=tablenameRow[3]; //Here DataRow object's Column3 is input.
cmd.OracleParameter.Add(p1); //Add parameters.
cmd.OracleParameter.Add(p2); //Add parameters.
cmd.OracleParameter.Add(p3); //Add parameters.
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); //Execute Procedure here.
Feel free to ask if still found problem.
