The following code examples show how to use data modification statements.

Procedure for Updates

You can use Exec to execute data modification statements. Exec returns a Result value which contains the number of affected rows.

INSERT

To insert updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("INSERT INTO Accounts (AccountNumber) VALUES ('4501')")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()

UPDATE

To retrieve updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("UPDATE Accounts SET AccountNumber = '4501' WHERE AccountName = 'Data/Telecom OEM'")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()

DELETE

To delete updates:

result, _ := db.Exec("DELETE FROM Accounts WHERE Id = '1'")
affected, _ := result.RowsAffected()
