Is it possible to use OleDBCommand parameters elsewhere than the Where clause?

Question

I have this code:

using (OleDbCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
    cmd.CommandText = string.Format(
        @"SELECT TOP {0} t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, IIF(ISNULL(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
        FROM t_accounts 
        INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = td_department_accounts.account_no) 
        WHERE (AccountID >= @firstId) AND type = 'DE'", CountToFetch);
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@firstId", FirstId);

...but wonder if I could use a param for the top count too, like:

using (OleDbCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
{
    cmd.CommandText = 
        @"SELECT TOP @count t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, IIF(ISNULL(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
        FROM t_accounts 
        INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = td_department_accounts.account_no) 
        WHERE (AccountID >= @firstId) AND type = 'DE'";
    cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@firstId", FirstId);
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@count", CountToFetch);

...or are database params limited to the WHERE clause only?

UPDATE

With this code:

  cmd.CommandText = 
        @"SELECT TOP @countToFetch t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, 
    IIF(ISNULL(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
        FROM t_accounts 
        INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = 
    td_department_accounts.account_no) 
        WHERE (AccountID >= @firstId) AND type = 'DE'";
    . . .
  cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@firstId", FirstId);
  cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@countToFetch", CountToFetch);

...I got, "The SELECT statement includes a reserved word or an argument name that is misspelled or missing, or the punctuation is incorrect."

So I reverted back to:

   cmd.CommandText = string.Format(
        @"SELECT TOP {0} t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, 
    IIF(ISNULL(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
        FROM t_accounts 
        INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = 
    td_department_accounts.account_no) 
        WHERE (AccountID >= @firstId) AND type = 'DE'", CountToFetch);
    . . .
    cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@firstId", FirstId);

UPDATE 2

This:

SELECT TOP (@countToFetch) t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, IIF(ISNULL
(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
FROM t_accounts 
INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = td_department_accounts.account_no) 
WHERE (AccountID >= @firstId) AND type = 'DE'"

...in Access tells me "The SELECT statement includes a reserved word or an argument name that is misspelled or missing, or the punctuation is incorrect."

NOTE: Postman tells me the exact same thing when making the REST call that ends up with the making of that query.

UPDATE 3

I also tried it as in Update 2 but with ":" instead of "@" and this way:

SELECT TOP (?) t_accounts.account_no as AccountID, IIF(ISNULL(t_accounts.name),'[blank]',t_accounts.name) AS Name 
FROM t_accounts 
INNER JOIN td_department_accounts ON (t_accounts.account_no = td_department_accounts.account_no) 
WHERE (AccountID >= ?) AND type = 'DE'"

Answer 1

I came across this post that seems to indicate that this does work, at least with T-SQL. I'm inclined to assume, given that, that it works with Access. Just, as that says, remember to include parentheses.

In any event, it's definitely not true that parameters can only be in the WHERE clause. You can use them in the SELECT, or even the ORDER BY.
