Here's my code and its not working. pls. pls help. thanks a lot

Try
conn.Open()
cmd = New AseCommand("select Name from employee where Id = 12", conn)
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()

If reader.Item("Name") = txtUserName.Text Then
txtPwd.Text = reader.Item("Name")
Else
txtPwd.Text = "No Match Data"
End If

Catch ex As AseException

Finally
If Not (reader Is Nothing) AndAlso Not (reader.IsClosed) Then
reader.Close()
End If
If Not (cmd Is Nothing) Then
cmd.Dispose()
End If
If Not (conn Is Nothing) Then ' AndAlso (conn.State <> ConnectionState.Closed) Then
conn.Close()
End If
End Try


I am not familiar with ASP.net. If you can modify especially in this part

If reader.Item("Name") = txtUserName.Text Then
txtPwd.Text = reader.Item("Name")
Else
txtPwd.Text = "No Match Data"
End If
it would be a great help. I know the error is in this part but I don't know what keyword or function i am going to use. Thanks a lot

Hey Guys,

At last i found an unsolved article that uses the .Read function in reading data from database.
Below is my solution.

conn.Open()

cmd = New AseCommand("select * from employee where Id = " & txtUserName.Text, conn)
reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
reader.Read()

If reader("Id") = txtUserName.Text Then
txtPwd.Text = reader("Name")
End If
