Question

I want to execute this stored procedure from a C# program.

I have written the following stored procedure in a SqlServer query window and saved it as stored1:

Answer 1

this is an example of a stored procedure that returns a value and it's execution in c#

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertPerson]   
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here  
@FirstName nvarchar(50),@LastName nvarchar(50),  
@PersonID int output  
AS  
BEGIN  
    insert [dbo].[Person](LastName,FirstName) Values(@LastName,@FirstName)  

    set @PersonID=SCOPE_IDENTITY()  
END  
Go  


--------------
 // Using stored procedure in adapter to insert new rows and update the identity value.  
   static void InsertPersonInAdapter(String connectionString, String firstName, String lastName) {  
      String commandText = "dbo.InsertPerson";  
      using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connectionString)) {  
         SqlDataAdapter mySchool = new SqlDataAdapter("Select PersonID,FirstName,LastName from [dbo].[Person]", conn);  

         mySchool.InsertCommand = new SqlCommand(commandText, conn);  
         mySchool.InsertCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;  

         mySchool.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add(  
             new SqlParameter("@FirstName", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "FirstName"));  
         mySchool.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add(  
             new SqlParameter("@LastName", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50, "LastName"));  

         SqlParameter personId = mySchool.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@PersonID", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "PersonID"));  
         personId.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;  

         DataTable persons = new DataTable();  
         mySchool.Fill(persons);  

         DataRow newPerson = persons.NewRow();  
         newPerson["FirstName"] = firstName;  
         newPerson["LastName"] = lastName;  
         persons.Rows.Add(newPerson);  

         mySchool.Update(persons);  
         Console.WriteLine("Show all persons:");  
         ShowDataTable(persons, 14); 

Answer 2

using (SqlConnection sqlConnection1 = new SqlConnection("Your Connection String")) {
using (SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand()) {
  Int32 rowsAffected;

  cmd.CommandText = "StoredProcedureName";
  cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
  cmd.Connection = sqlConnection1;

  sqlConnection1.Open();

  rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

}}

You mean that your code is DDL? If so, MSSQL has no difference. Above examples well shows how to invoke this. Just ensure

CommandType = CommandType.Text

Answer 4

SqlConnection conn = null;
SqlDataReader rdr  = null;
conn = new SqlConnection("Server=(local);DataBase=Northwind;Integrated Security=SSPI");
conn.Open();

// 1.  create a command object identifying
//     the stored procedure
SqlCommand cmd  = new SqlCommand("CustOrderHist", conn);

// 2. set the command object so it knows
//    to execute a stored procedure
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;

// 3. add parameter to command, which
//    will be passed to the stored procedure
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@CustomerID", custId));

// execute the command
rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader();

// iterate through results, printing each to console
while (rdr.Read())
{
    Console.WriteLine("Product: {0,-35} Total: {1,2}", rdr["ProductName"], rdr["Total"]);
}

Please check out Crane (I'm the author)

https://www.nuget.org/packages/Crane/

SqlServerAccess sqlAccess = new SqlServerAccess("your connection string");
var result = sqlAccess.Command().ExecuteNonQuery("StoredProcedureName");

Also has a bunch of other features you might like.

No Dapper answer here. So I added one

using Dapper;
using System.Data.SqlClient;

using (var cn = new SqlConnection(@"Server=(local);DataBase=master;Integrated Security=SSPI"))
    cn.Execute("dbo.test", commandType: CommandType.StoredProcedure);
