using System;using System.Collections.Generic;using System.Linq;using System.Web;using System.Web.UI;using System.Web.UI.WebControls;namespace DeleteDataEFAzureApp{ public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page { protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { TextBox4.Focus(); } protected void Button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(TextBox4.Text)) { Label5.Text = "Please Enter Some Values"; Label5.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red; } else { CompanyEntities objCompany = new CompanyEntities(); Employee deleteQuery; var id = int.Parse(TextBox4.Text); deleteQuery = (from r in objCompany.Employees where r.ID == id select r).First(); objCompany.DeleteObject(deleteQuery); objCompany.SaveChanges(); Label5.Text = "Data Deleted Successfully";
Label5.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Green; TextBox4.Text = string.Empty; } } }}
