SUMMARY

Adovcsp.exe is a sample program that demonstrates opening keyset and forwardOnly cursors using ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) Recordsets by executing stored procedures on Microsoft SQL Server. It also shows how to open a disconnected record set. The sample uses the Visual C++ #import feature and demonstrates ADO Recordset GetState(), Parameters GetName() and GetValue(), and many other Recordset, Command and Connection methods.

Microsoft scanned this file for viruses. Microsoft used the most current virus-detection software that was available on the date that the file was posted. The file is stored on security-enhanced servers that help to prevent any unauthorized changes to the file.

The application assumes that you have a Microsoft SQL Server installed with the sample Pubs database. If this is not the case, change the following code in the openConn function:

spCON->ConnectionString = L"Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=pubs;Data Source=serverName;";

Replace Data Source=serverName with the name of your server and specify the name of your database. The sample creates two stored procedures and a table, and then drops them when the application exits.

The OpenRd method takes an input parameter (GradYear) and passes it to the stored procedure sp_AdoTestInOut. sp_AdoTestInOut returns all the records with GradYear >= to the parameter passed. It returns an output parameter, the number of records returned and also returns a parameter (the max GradYear). The student table created is based on the Student table of the Student Enrollment database that ships with Visual C++.

In this sample, the text boxes to show the Output parameter and Return code are only used when running the stored procedure by clicking the OpenRead button. Please see the source code for more details.

The Supports button obtains the schema information from the database using the technique and code described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

The Open DisCon button opens a disconnected recordset. This code is taken from the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
