Hi Dave,
Could you please past some code snippet in newsgroup? I'm not sure how did
you get the DbDataReader and which provider are you using. I have test with
SQLDataReader on my side. However, SQLDataReadder.GetName() method will
return column name, even though there is no row returned by
SQLCommand.execute() method. Would you please provide some detailed
information.
Below is my test code:
SqlConnection sc = new SqlConnection();
sc.ConnectionString = @"Data Source=sha-dng-wywang;Initial
Catalog=AdventureWorks;Integrated Security=True";
SqlCommand scd = new SqlCommand();
scd.CommandText = "select * from DataBaseLog where databaselogid=100000";
scd.Connection = sc;
sc.Open();
SqlDataReader sdr=scd.ExecuteReader();
string columnName=sdr.GetName(0);
sc.Close();
Console.WriteLine(columnName);
Have a great day.
Sincerely,
Wen Yuan
