Dim sql As String = _ "select count(*)" & _ "from InvoiceLineItems join Invoices" & _ "on InvoiceLineItems.InvoiceID = Invoices.InvoiceID" & _ "where (Invoices.InvoiceDate > @startDate) and " & _ "(Invoices.InvoiceDate < @endDate)" ' create the comman object Dim command As New SqlCommand(sql, connection) ' add new parameters to the Parameters collection Dim param As New SqlParameter("@startDate", SqlDbType.DateTime) param.Value = startDate command.Parameters.Add(param) param = New SqlParameter("@endDate", SqlDbType.DateTime) param.Value = endDate command.Parameters.Add(param) ' assign a value to the output parameter Try dim scalarValue As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(command.ExecuteScalar) lineItemCount = CType(scalarValue, SqlInt32) Catch ex As Exception lineItemCount = 0 End Try ' close the connection object connection.Close() End SubEnd ClassHere's my script:declare @lineItemCountOut intexec GetLineItemCountDateRange @lineItemCount =@lineItemCountOut output, @startDate = '2006-01-01', @endDate = '2006-05-30'print 'Line item count: ' + convert(varchar, @lineItemCountOut, 1) |
