procedure give me garbage data in some fields

Question

I have that code:

string pathToSave = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.DesktopDirectory);
            string file = pathToSave + "\\" + "produkty_" + lang + ".csv";
            FileStream fs = new FileStream(file, FileMode.Create);
            StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(fs);
           // sw.WriteLine("id;Akt. 1/0;nazwa;kateg.;cena netto;stawka pod;cen suger.;wyprz.;o;d;d;nr kat.;dostępne od:;prod.;ilość;opis skróc;opis;konserwacja");

            OdbcCommand Qry = new OdbcCommand(query, con);
            OdbcDataReader dataReader = Qry.ExecuteReader();

            while (dataReader.Read())
            {
                //SELECT p.COUNTER, p.AKT, p.NAZWA, p.KATEGORIA, p.CENA_NETTO, p.STAWKA_VAT, 
                //p.CENA_SUGEROWANA, p.WYPRZ, p.O, p.COSTAM, p.D1, p.D2, p.NR_KAT, 
                //p.DOSTEPNE_OD, p.COSTAM2, p.PROD, p.COSTAM3, p.COSTAM4, p.COSTAM5, p.ILOSC, p.OPIS_SKRO, p.COMPOS, p.CONSERV

                string counter         = String.Empty;
                string AKT             = String.Empty;

                string CONSERV         = String.Empty;

                counter = dataReader["COUNTER"].ToString();

                //if (COMPOS.Contains(@"\"))
                //{
                //    COMPOS = "";
                //}
                StreamWriter wr = new StreamWriter(@"c:\kan\fileOuput1.txt", true);
                wr.WriteLine(
                counter + ";" +
                AKT + ";" +
                NAZWA + ";" +
                KATEGORIA + ";" +
                CENA_NETTO + ";" +

               CONSERV + ";"
               );
                wr.Close();

And when I save it to csv file in COMPOS and CONSERV I get some garbage data, looks like combination of some fields etc :/ Do You have any idea why it's happens? And this take place for some rows, not always ...

Answer 1

Here are some things you can try:

• Try checking these rows in the DB. Are they valid?
• Do they have any special characters that are messing up the fields?
• Debug the datareader object itself to check if the data was properly fetched, if not check your query.
