I think your EmpID column is string and you forget to use     in your value   Because when you write EmpID     id Text  your command looks like EmpID   12345 instead of EmpID    12345    Change your SqlCommand to  SqlCommand cmd   new SqlCommand  SELECT EmpName FROM Employee WHERE EmpID      id Text       con     Or as a better way you can  and should  always use parameterized queries  This kind of string concatenations are open for SQL Injection attacks   SqlCommand cmd   new SqlCommand  SELECT EmpName FROM Employee WHERE EmpID    id   con   cmd Parameters AddWithValue   id   id Text     I think your EmpID column keeps your employee id s  so it s type should some numerical type instead of character

Try this  SqlCommand cmd   new SqlCommand  SELECT EmpName FROM Employee WHERE EmpID  id   con   cmd Parameters AddWithValue  id   id Text

There are some problems with your code  First I advise to use parametrized queries so you avoid SQL Injection attacks and also parameter types are discovered by framework  var cmd   new SqlCommand  quot SELECT EmpName FROM Employee WHERE EmpID    id quot   con   cmd Parameters AddWithValue  quot  id quot   id Text    Second  as you are interested only in one value getting returned from the query  it is better to use ExecuteScalar  var name   cmd ExecuteScalar     if  name    null       position   name ToString       Response Write  quot User Registration successful quot      else       Console WriteLine  quot No Employee found  quot       The last thing is to wrap SqlConnection and SqlCommand into using so any resources used by those will be disposed of  string position   using  SqlConnection con   new SqlConnection  quot server free-pc  FATMAH  Integrated Security True  database Workflow   quot        con Open       using  var cmd   new SqlCommand  quot SELECT EmpName FROM Employee WHERE EmpID    id quot   con           cmd Parameters AddWithValue  quot  id quot   id Text          var name   cmd ExecuteScalar           if  name    null               position   name ToString           Response Write  quot User Registration successful quot              else               Console WriteLine  quot No Employee found  quot
