Bulk Insertion of Data Using C# DataTable and SQL server OpenXML function

OpenXML
I created procedure which make use of OpenXML function of the sql server which allow to insert multiple record in one time. OpenXML require xml string of record to insert data in the database.



ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[Ins_Employee]   
(    @XmlString text    )   
AS   
BEGIN   
 SET NOCOUNT ON   
 BEGIN TRANSACTION   
 Begin Try   
 
  DECLARE @XMLDocPointer INT   
  EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @XMLDocPointer OUTPUT, @XmlString   
 
   INSERT INTO Employee
   (Name, Email, PhoneNo)   
   SELECT Name,Email,PhoneNo  
   FROM OPENXML(@XMLDocPointer,'/ROOT/DATA',2)   
   WITH  (Name VARCHAR(50),-- '@Name',    
         Email VARCHAR(50),-- '@Email',    
         PhoneNo VARCHAR(50) --'@PhoneNo')    
 
   EXEC sp_xml_removedocument @XMLDocPointer   
   COMMIT TRANSACTION   
   Return 0;    
 End Try   
 Begin Catch   
   ROLLBACK TRANSACTION   
 End Catch   
END


As you see in above procedure OpenXML make use of xmlDocument as input which is get created by system define procedure sp_xml_preparedocument which take xmlString as input and return XmlDocument.
Once OpenXML done task of insertion sp_xml_removedocument system proceudre is require to remove that element.
All record get inserted in once by the OpenXML function as I used transaction if the one record insertion fails all inserted record get rollback.

Following line of the code used to execute code i.e stored procedure
As you see in I am passing Element centric xml to the proceudre.

Exec Ins_Employee
 '<root>
  <data>
    <name>pranay</name>
    <email>pranayamr@gmail.com</email>
    <phoneno>99007007</phoneno>
  </data>
 '
</root>
Note
If you are passing XML string as Attribute centric in it as in procedure than you need to define variable so the select statement in procedure will be

SELECT Name,Email,PhoneNo  
   FROM OPENXML(@XMLDocPointer,'/ROOT/DATA',2)   
   WITH  (Name VARCHAR(50) '@Name',    
         Email VARCHAR(50) '@Email',    
         PhoneNo VARCHAR(50) '@PhoneNo')

Exec Ins_Employee
  '<root>    
   <data email="pranayamr@gmail.com" name="pranay" phoneno="99007007">   
  </data></root>'
Now after done with the database , code part of the application is as below.

Uploaded Excel File which contains Employee data 


Presentation layer
Following function in presentation layer read data from the excel file, which is uploaded on server.


private void ReadAndInsertExcelData()
{
     int i;
     bool blValid = true;
     OleDbCommand ocmd;
     OleDbDataAdapter oda;
     DataTable dtDetails;
     DataSet dsDetails;
 
     OleDbConnection oconn = new OleDbConnection    
          (@"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" +
               Server.MapPath("~/Upload/MonthlyActual.xls") + ";Extended
               Properties='Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;IMEX=1'");
     try
     {
          ocmd = new OleDbCommand("select * from [Sheet1$]", oconn);
          oda = new OleDbDataAdapter(ocmd);
          dsDetails = new DataSet();
          oda.Fill(dsDetails, "DATA");
          dtDetails = dsDetails.Tables[0];
          dsDetails.DataSetName = "ROOT";
          i = 0;
 
          DataRow[] drLst = dtDetails.Select("(Name is null) or (Email is
                              null) or (PhoneNo is null)");
          if (drLst.Count() > 0)
               blValid = false;
          if (blValid)
          {
               XMLController xMLController = new XMLController();
               xMLController.Ins(BaseLineType, dtDetails);
          }
     }
     catch
     {
          lblMsg.Text = ex.Message;
          lblMsg.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
     }
     finally
     {
          lblMsg.Text = "Data Inserted Sucessfully";
          oda = null;
          dtDetails = null;
          dsDetails = null;
     }
}

Business Layer
Function below takes DataTable as input and generate XML string, As you see below I used StringWriter which use StringBuilder object, DataTable make use of StringWriter and write XML string in StringBuilder object. 

public int Ins(DataTable pImportTable)
{
     int IsSuccess = -100;
     try
     {
          StringBuilder sbXMLString = new StringBuilder();
          System.IO.StringWriter sw = new System.IO.StringWriter
                                                  (sbXMLString);
          pImportTable.WriteXml(sw);
 
          DALXML dALManualCost = new DALXML();
          dALManualCost.Ins(sbXMLString.ToString());
          IsSuccess = dALManualCost.IsSuccess;
     }
     catch
     {
          throw;
     }
     return IsSuccess;
}
Note:Above method generate Element centric XML string.

Now if you want to write out the Attribute centric xml file you just need to replace the line of datatable.WriteXml with the below code for loop also you dont require to use the StringWriter object.

sbXMLString.Append("<root>");
          for (int i = 0; i < pImportTable.Rows.Count; i++)
          {
            sbXMLString.Append("<DATA ");
            sbXMLString.Append("Name='" +
                         pImportTable.Rows[i][0].ToString().Trim() + "' ");
            sbXMLString.Append("Email='" + pImportTable.Rows
                         [i][1].ToString().Trim() + "' ");
            sbXMLString.Append("PhoneNo='" +
                         pImportTable.Rows[i][2].ToString().Trim() + "' ");
             
            sbXMLString.Append(" />");
  
          }
          sbXMLString.Append("</root>");
DataLayer  
Now this layer call the stored procedure which pass the xmlstring of employee to database. Return parameter will tell that its successfull insert or not.

public void Ins(string pXMLString)
{
     try
     {
          Database db = CommonHelper.GetDataBaseInstance();
          DbCommand cmdXML = db.GetStoredProcCommand
                         (SP_INSERT_STAGINGMANUALCOSTMONTHLY);
 
          db.AddInParameter(cmdXML, "XmlString", DbType.String,
                                                       pXMLString);
          db.AddParameter(cmdXML, "ret", DbType.Int32,                    
          ParameterDirection.ReturnValue, "", DataRowVersion.Current,
                                                            IsSuccess);
 
          db.ExecuteNonQuery(cmdXML);
          IsSuccess = Convert.ToInt32(db.GetParameterValue(cmdXML, "ret"));
     }
     catch
     {
          IsSuccess = -100;
          throw;
     }
}

Note : This is the one technique I found useful to enter bulk amount of data in database in one transaction. There are also other available which might be more efficient than this
