INFO: Programmer's Guide to Using ADO in Visual C++

ID: q172392



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Editions, version 5.0




SUMMARY

This article presents information that can be useful to anyone wanting to take advantage of the ActiveX Data Objects within Visual C++ version 5.0. The following topics are covered:

  • Implementations of ADO within Visual C++
  • How to find ADO Knowledge Base Articles
  • ADO Resources/Points of Information


MORE INFORMATION

Implementations of ADO within Visual C++

Any of the three methods can be used to get at the ADO typelib within Visual C++:

  • #import
  • MFC-OLE derived classes
  • OLE SDK

Of the three methods, #import offers the easiest (meaning the least amount of code) method of getting at and manipulating ADO objects.

How to Find ADO Knowledge Base Articles

ADO is not a technology that ships with one particular product, and is not treated as its own product. To find ADO KB articles on the Web, connect to the following URL:

http://support.microsoft.com/support

and then click "ActiveX Data Objects" as the Product.

For the MSDN or other non-Web-based KB search mechanisms, you can search on the keyword <adobj> that is contained in all ADO articles.

ADO Resources/Points of Information

ADO originally shipped with the OLE-DB SDK, so you should hit both the OLE-DB Web page as well as the ADO Web sites listed below:

http://www.microsoft.com/data/ado/http://www.microsoft.com/data/oledb/
