The following code example demonstrates how to programmatically create a CookieParameter object, set its properties, and add it to a SqlDataSource control's SelectParameters collection.

public partial class cookieparam2cs_aspx : System.Web.UI.Page 
{
    void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // These cookies might be added by a login form.
        // They are added here for simplicity.
        if (!IsPostBack)
        {
            Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie("lname", "davolio"));
            Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie("loginname", "ndavolio"));
            Response.Cookies.Add(new HttpCookie("lastvisit", DateTime.Now.ToString()));

            // You can add a CookieParameter to the SqlDataSource control's
            // SelectParameters collection programmatically.
            CookieParameter cookieParam = new CookieParameter();
            cookieParam.Name = "lastname";
            cookieParam.Type = TypeCode.String;
            cookieParam.CookieName = "lname";

            SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add(cookieParam);
        }
    }
}
Partial Class cookieparam2vb_aspx
    Inherits System.Web.UI.Page
    Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        ' These cookies might be added by a login form.
        ' They are added here for simplicity.
        If (Not IsPostBack) Then
            Dim cookie As HttpCookie

            cookie = New HttpCookie("lname", "davolio")
            Response.Cookies.Add(cookie)

            cookie = New HttpCookie("loginname", "ndavolio")
            Response.Cookies.Add(cookie)

            cookie = New HttpCookie("lastvisit", DateTime.Now.ToString())
            Response.Cookies.Add(cookie)


            ' You can add a CookieParameter to the SqlDataSource control's
            ' SelectParameters collection programmatically.
            Dim cookieParam As New CookieParameter()
            cookieParam.Name = "lastname"
            cookieParam.Type = TypeCode.String
            cookieParam.CookieName = "lname"

            SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add(cookieParam)

        End If
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

The CookieName property identifies an HTTP cookie, which is represented by an HttpCookie object and is available through the current HttpRequest object. If the HTTP cookie is not available in the current HttpRequest object, the Evaluate method binds the parameter to the value of the DefaultValue property, if it is set. If the DefaultValue property is not set, the Evaluate method fails to bind the parameter to a value.
