CursorType
The CursorType parameter of the Recordset object Open method indicates what cursor type will start the data, including adOpenForwardOnly, adOpenKeyset, adOpenDynamic, and adOpenStatic. It is described as follows:
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Constants Constant Numerical description
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
adOpenForwardOnly 0 defaults to start a cursor that can only be moved forward (Forward only).
adOpenKeyset 1 launches a keyset type of cursor.
adOpenDynamic 2 launches a dynamic-type cursor.
adOpenStatic 3 launches a static type of cursor.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
These cursor types will directly affect all properties and methods of the Recordset object, and the following list illustrates the differences between them.

LockType
The LockType parameter of the Recordset object's Open method represents the lock type to take, and if this argument is omitted, then the system takes the LockType property of the Recordset object as the preset value. The LockType parameters include adLockReadOnly, adlockprssimistic, adLockOptimistic, and adLockBatchOptimistic, as described below:
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
Constants Constant Numerical description
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
adLockReadOnly 1 defaults, the Recordset object starts as read-only and cannot run AddNew, Update, and Delete methods
Adlockprssimistic 2 When the data source is being updated, the system temporarily locks the actions of other users to maintain data consistency.
adLockOptimistic 3 When the data source is being updated, the system does not lock other users ' actions, other users can add, delete, and change the operation of the data.
adLockBatchOptimistic 4 When the data source is being updated, other users must change the CursorLocation property to Adudeclientbatch to add, delete, and modify the data.
