Use ADO to access the data source-Features
1. Accessing a database through an ODBC Data Source represents how to establish an ODBC data source for a relational database
2. Use the ADO recordset object to save data and execute the update method for real-time update.
3. Display and modify data using text boxes and button events
Design Analysis
In fact, you can use ADO to directly access the 2000 database (system logon). This force uses the ODBC data source to access the ODBC data source at the end of the period.
How to update a data source using ADO
1. Save the data retrieval to the recordset object and update it using the update method. If you use a recordset object that is disconnected, update it using the updatebatch method.
2. Use the command object to execute the SQL data update command. This does not need to use the recordset object or use other methods to retrieve data to the local computer.
Technical Essentials
The locktype attribute of recordset is used to specify the record lock type.
Adlockreadonly: Default Value, read-only, unable to update data
Adlockpessimistic
Adlockoptimistic: Open record lock, locking record when the update method is executed
Adlockbatchoptimistic: an open batch update, indicating that the recordset uses the updatebatch method to update multiple records, that is, the record is locked when the updatebatch method is executed.
The temporary table location of the recordset (the cursorlocation attribute is used to specify the temporary table location) can be set
Aduseclient: temporary table on the client, which provides unique functions such as re-sorting and searching records using indexes.
Aduseserver: temporary table on the server side, maintained by the retrieved data source on the server side
Note: The recordset In ADO is a one-way read-only temporary table on the server by default.
Browse records in recordset
Two steps are required to browse records in recordset. First, locate the current record. When recordset is enabled, the first record is the current record. Then, use the field object to obtain the data columns of the current record.
The recordset object can locate the current record using the following five methods:
1. movefirst: point the record pointer to the first record.
2. movenext: Use the record pointer to point to the next record.
3. moveprevious: indicates the forward record of the record pointer.
4. movelast: point the record pointer to the last record.
5. Move N: point the record pointer to the nth record counted from the current record
Note: When you browse recordset, if Bof is true, the Record Pointer Points to the first record. If the EOF attribute is true, the Record Pointer Points to the last record. These two attributes can also be used to test whether recordset is null.
ODBC Data Source Type
User DSN: local data source of the computer, which can only be used by the current user.
System DSN: local computer data source, which can be used by any user with Permissions
File DSN: it can be shared by users who have installed the same driver instead of a local data source on the computer.
Note: When establishing a data source connection, the connection object uses the msdasql driver by default. Therefore, you only need to specify the data source name in the connection string. For example:
Objcn. Open "DSN = myaccess" 'create a database connection
Procedure
1. Create an oodbc Data Source
Choose system start> program> Management Tools> Data Source
Click Add and select Microsoft Access driver.
Click Finish to open the installation dialog box.
In the data source name text box, enter "instance 2dsn" as the name of the new data source, enter "access data source for instance 2" in the description text box, and click the select button.
Click OK to close the dialog box
To set administrator options such as logon name and password for the ODBC data source, click Advanced to enable advanced options.
If you use an Access database with a system database, select "ODBC
In the Microsoft Access installation dialog box, click system database.
If you want to set additional options for the driver, including page timeout, buffer size, exclusive zone size, exclusive and read-only options, click
The option button in the "ODBC Microsoft Access installation" dialog box, and the driver sequence additional options are displayed at the bottom of the dialog box.
Click OK to close the installation dialog box. The new instance 2dsn data source is displayed in the "ODBC data source Manager" dialog box.
Click OK to close the "obdc data source Manager" dialog box and complete data source creation.
