QuestionOLE 2.0 DB Problem Pin
ShelJo30-Dec-05 1:42
ShelJo30-Dec-05 1:42 
To me has fallen the task of documenting an in-house database created in OLE 2.0. This DB is accessed only through an API of which there is no source code. Through attrition and evidently poor documentation, the DB layout is basically lost. It is also quite complex with subsequent programmers, who did not understand it, jury rigging it to add functionality to it. Viewing it in Docfile Viewer does show the various "tables" within the DB, and the Uni-Code data is plain to see. Trying to traverse the DB manually and figure out how the system of pointers is working is making no sense to me. Of course without the layout, it's hard to tell what IS a pointer within the DB. I have worked with DB's of a similar nature and complexity before where we did have the layout and was successful with those. Creating a simple record in this DB using the existing software and then trying to see the before and after in simple additions to the data are not working for me.

My question is: Is there anyone that could give me some pointers on where to go with this? Are there good tools to use? I do have the C++ debugger for the executable only (no source code, remember) and the Doc File Viewer.
