Purpose

To access SQL SERVER database and execute Stored Procedures. If you need Dataset, you can use GetDataSet method or if you need DataReader use GetDataReader method and so on.

How to Use

Copy the code below and compile it as DataAccess.cs
Add reference of DataAccess.dll from Bin directory to your project.
Instantiate DataAccess Class and use its functionality. 

string SPName= "SP_Search '" + FirstName + " '";
string strConnect = "Data Source=ServerName;InitialCatalog=databaseName; UID=yourUserid;PWD=yourPassword" ;
DataAccess objdb =
new DataAccess();

if you want to bind to the DataGrid with DataReader in ASP.net

DataGrid1.DataSource = objdb.GetDataReader(strConn,SPName);
DataGrid1.DataBind(); 

if you want dataset with two dataTables

System.Data.DataView dvwProduct= new System.Data.DataView() ;
System.Data.DataView dvwSearch=
new System.Data.DataView() ;
System.Data.DataSet dst ;
string[] arrProcName = new string[2];
string[] arrTableName = new string[2];
arrProcName[0] = ""SP_Search '" + FirstName + " '";
arrProcName[1] = "sp_getProduct "+ prodID;
arrTableName[0] = "Search";
arrTableName[1] = "Products";
string strConnect = "Data Source=ServerName;InitialCatalog=databaseName;UID=yourUserid; PWD=yourPassword";
dst = objdb.GetDataSet(strConn,arrProcName,arrTableName);
dvwSearch=dst.Tables["Search"].DefaultView;
dvwProduct = dst.Tables["Products"].DefaultView;

Warning: Be careful creating SPName string. You need to form a string With Stored procedure name and give space and parameters name if any. If parameter is a varchar data type ,don't forget to add quotes as shown above.
