IIRC some old unix book recommended splitting type declaration, prototype and body on different lines, like this:
int
myFunc(char *str, int strlen)
{
<body>
}
with the rationale being that grepping for ^myFunc (or searching for it in vi) would have found the function declaration immediately.Not sure I like that, anyway.

Agree. It hasn't changed, it's still what Microsofts C# style guide recommends.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/programming-g...
It's also what VS Code autoformats even C++ to by default.
Also I wonder if the other commenters reflexively saying "SQL injection" realize that is just the symptom; the underlying problem is that LINQ is not used. Even if the SQL injection was fixed, a literal SQL query is usually not the right tool in C#.
Obviously Standards change, but that's what we learned when I went to school.
The only thing that should matter with style is consistency.
