Hi,

Currently i'm doing Bulk data insert from Excel to SQL database.
My total logic is working fine for inserting. But my question is column name should be unique , now i want to check that.

for ex:

column1 : Title

but client enter the column1 value is "title"

In this case i don't want to insert data i want to display the error message .

How to do this can any one help me to resolve this issue.

you can use Regex class for such values.

C#

string originalValue="Title";
string enteredValue="title";
static bool IsValid(string orgValue, string entValue)
{
    return Regex.IsMatch(orgValue,"^" + entValue + "$"); //Remember, this will check for the whole string
}

If it returns false, Flag an Error.
