Represents an SQL statement that is executed while connected to a data source, and is implemented by .NET Framework data providers that access relational databases.

Syntax
Remarks
The System.Data.IDbCommand interface enables an inheriting class to implement a Command class, which represents an SQL statement that is executed at a data source. For more information about Command classes, see [<topic://cpconadonetcommands>].
An application does not create an instance of the System.Data.IDbCommand interface directly, but creates an instance of a class that inherits System.Data.IDbCommand.
Classes that inherit System.Data.IDbCommand must implement all inherited members, and typically define additional members to add provider-specific functionality. For example, the System.Data.IDbCommand interface defines the IDbCommand.ExecuteNonQuery method. In turn, the System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand class inherits this method, and also defines the System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteXmlReader method.
