activex_data_objects thread: active x and databases


Message #1 by "Ken McIntosh" <ken.mcintosh@s...> on Mon, 25 Jun 2001 10:58:53
Hello,



Lets get this right..as a person thats fairly new to VB6 ans active X.  







CAn I with one active X control connect to database (i.e. in the forms 

load event), add records, delete records, search for records, add field 

validation on fields etc, all through the one active X control.  I can 

then put this control on a web site and use it to manipulate data in a 

database I have connected to through the active X control.  



Thanks

Ken

Anders :)

Yeah, ADO gives you pretty much complete control of the database with some

caveats... You need a database with an OLEDB driver and you may be somewhat

limited on database specific language, but it pretty much supports ANSI SQL

without a hitch, as far as I've seen.
