    string selectSQL = "SELECT [total] FROM [stock] WHERE ([itemCode] = " + TextBoxCode.Text + ")";
    SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(connectionString);
    SqlCommand com = new SqlCommand(selectSQL, con);
    try
    {
        con.Open();          
        object obj = com.ExecuteScalar();

        if (obj == null) //(also tried is DBNull)
        {
            lblStatus.Text = "Does not exist in stock";
        }
        else
        {
            sum = com.ExecuteScalar().ToString();
            lblStatus.Text = "Items in stock: " + sum;
        }
    }
    catch (Exception err)

        lblStatus.Text = err.Message;
    }
    finally
    {
        con.Close();

object obj = com.ExecuteScalar(); 

"SELECT COUNT(total) FROM [stock] WHERE ([itemCode] = " + TextBoxCode.Text + ")";
