    Because as the other Richard said below, you are not checking the result of your query! :doh: And as I said above, you are storing passwords insecurely. If you're intending to use this code in a real application, then I hope you've got deep pockets, because you're going to get hit with a multi-million dollar fine PDQ.

      Look at your query:

      Quote:

      select * from login where userid=@userid, password=@password, confirmpassword=@confirmpassword where loginid=@loginid is same

      You have two where clauses, which is not valid. And as far as I can see, that is same on the end is also not valid. And putting a comma between conditions is also not valid - you need to use AND instead. Aside from that, you have four parameters: @userid, @password, @confirmpassword, and @loginid. Now look at the parameters you are passing to the command:

      Quote:

      cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@userid", id);
      //cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@employee_id", Convert.ToInt32(id));
      cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@password", password);
      //cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@confirmpassword", confirmpassword);

      You are passing TWO parameters: @userid and @password. Either fix you query to use the parameters you are passing, or fix your code to pass the parameters required by the query.

      Sir, I have passed 3parameters but still it login in with wrong user id password also, how to write correct mysql query here?

      string connectionString;

      cnn = new MySqlConnection(connectionString);

      textBox10.Text = "";
      string query = "select * from login where userid=@userid and password=@password and loginid=@loginid";
      using (MySqlCommand cmd = new MySqlCommand(query))
      {
      cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@userid", id);
      //cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@employee_id", Convert.ToInt32(id));
      cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@password", password);
      cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@loginid", loginid);
      //cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@confirmpassword", confirmpassword);
      cmd.Connection = cnn;
      cnn.Open();
      cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
      DialogResult dr = MessageBox.Show("Are you sure to Login now?", "Confirmation", MessageBoxButtons.YesNo);
      if (dr == DialogResult.Yes)
      {
      MessageBox.Show("Login Successfully");
      cnn.Close();
      this.Hide();

        Yes, it shows login successful because, as I keep repeating, you post that message even when the ExecuteNonQuery fails. You need to start thinking about your code in logical steps rather than just throwing statements together and hoping it will work. 1. Perform the ExecuteNonQuery, and capture the return value. 2. Does the return value indicate success? 2.1. No - tell the user it failed. 2.2 Yes - and only at this point, tell the user it succeeded. 3. Perform other actions.

          You really can't be bothered to pay attention, can you? :doh: Programming is not about throwing some random code together from a couple of internet searches, and then pestering other people to fix it for you. If you can't think for yourself, then you have chosen the wrong career.

                  No, that is not what it means, please read the documentation: SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery Method (System.Data.SqlClient) | Microsoft Docs[^]. When you use a SELECT to find a particular user id and the return value says that there is an existing row it means that the details are correct. However since most of your code is in the wrong order it is unlikely that any of your results are correct.

                    You are clearly not paying attention, neither here nor in your class. You have repeatedly been told that you need to check the results of your query. You have been told how to do that. And yet you continue to ask how to do what you have already been told how to do, and insist that you need to change your query rather than your code.

                      How many times do I need to say it: Do not post a success message when you have not checked the result of your Database query. This is the way you should do it:

                      cnn.Open();
                      int result = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); // always capture the result
                      cnn.Close();
                      if (result == 1)
                      {
                      MessageBox.Show("Login was successful");
                      }
                      else
                      {
                      MessageBox.Show("The entered details were not correct");
                      }

                      Also, why do you need two ids (userid and loginid)? You should only need a single id and a password.

                            }

                            Also, why do you need two ids (userid and loginid)? You should only need a single id and a password.

                              There really is no point in continuing this thread. It does not matter how many times we tell you how to correct your code you insist on ignoring our advice. My previous reply showed you exactly how to do it correctly, and yet you just repeat the same bad code. I suggest you consider a different career path.

                                  I gave you the correct code in my message above at Re: C# to Mysql Login code Error - C# Discussion Boards[^]. Why don't you actually go and read it, and better still, use it to correct your own code?

                                      Why do you ignore everything we tell you? Go back to the code sample I gave you, it shows exactly how to do it correctly. This is my last message on this subject.

                                        No, that is not what it means, please read the documentation: SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery Method (System.Data.SqlClient) | Microsoft Docs[^]. When you use a SELECT to find a particular user id and the return value says that there is an existing row it means that the details are correct. However since most of your code is in the wrong order it is unlikely that any of your results are correct.
