Hiya have tried the DELETE as u suggested but still not working for me.
I think I know what it is though. What should this line change to for reading and writing..
// Execute the query
recset.Open( CRecordset::forwardOnly,SqlString,CRecordset::readOnly );
Have tried a "CRecordset::writeOnly, but none exists.
Thanks
grahamoj.
Have also tried this:
recset.Open( AFX_DB_USE_DEFAULT_TYPE,SqlString,CRecordset::none );

Does anyone know how to get the name of the database server I am connecting to with OleDB.NET in C# e.g. is it SQL Server or is it Oracle, etc.
Cheers,
Dave.

Usually most of that information can be obtained from your OleDbConnection object. Look up the public properties of that class.

I've looked at them and that info doesn't seem to be available. Any other ideas?

Hey All -
I'm wondering if anyone else has come across a similar problem and/or solution.
I've implemented a desktop application in .NET (C#). In order to increase performance, it maintains a local cache of server-side data in a collection of DataTable objects (since I'm not retrieving this data from a DB, I'm not using the DataAdapter, I'm building these DataTable objects dynamically).
Anyway, in order to optimize the application, I'm refactoring the application to use several threads for different things. Now, the problem this introduces is I no have the possibility of two threads attempting a write operation to the same DataTable object (which, according to the MSDN does not support thread safe write operations -- BOO!  )
Rather than write set() methods for all my dataTable objects and look after the write synchronization, I'm wondering if its possible to just create two new objects, perhaps SynchroDataTable and SynchroDataRow that extend DataTable and DataRow respectively and synchronize the appropriate properties. That way, I can multithread my app without writing to much new data access/update code.
Has anyone tried something similar? What were your experiences, strategies?
Any/all comments, suggestions, code, solutions, URLs, etc.. are appreciated!
Regards,
Bill

Hiya I have only started to learn SQL in MFC/C++. I have a program that opens a ACCESS DATABASE and I can do queries on it no problem using SQL. My question is how is a SQL server accessed??
Is it the same as I have accessed the ACCESS DATABASE?? Normally on a SQL server, are the files all kept as databases and that is how you can access them the same??
Can anyone give me some info on accessing a database on a SQL server..
Thank you.
grahamoj.

How do I go about inserting a string that contains a ' into a table when it is considered the end of my string? I'm using VB - shhhhh! - and I've tried escaping it with a \ but that doesn't seem to help.
[edit]
I'm currently using ADO and trying to use Connection.Execute and a full SQL INSERT statement. Would it be easier to use Recordset.AddNew and then just manually set the fields?
[/edit]
Is it possible?

Replace("Some string with a ' in it", "'", "''") should do the trick.

No kidding? What's the logic there? I thought two single quotes together mean string concatenation...
I'll give it a try when I get home. Thanks!

(FYI: The app in question will be an ASP.NET web application interfacing a Sybase back-end.)
I'm new to the web arena and I am trying to get a feel for which one I should choose. Please share any thoughts or experiences
Which is better... ADO.NET or ODBC.NET?
Why would someone choose one over the other?
What benefits do you get with ADO.NET?
What benefits do you get with ODBC.NET?
Any drawbacks to either one?
Thanks!

ODBC.NET is a database/driver specific part of ADO.NET. Others are SqlClient for Sql Server, and OleDb for databases that have OleDb drivers available.
Preferrably you'd want to use a provider (in your case Sybase) that is specifically tailored for .NET (like the SQL one is specific for MS Sql Server)
If no such .NET specific driver is available your next best bet is an OLEDB driver and the OleDb .NET classes.
If you're still out of luck (no db specific .NET or OLEDB support), ODBC.NET is your only option. I have used ODBC.NET to access ODBC data sources with out any trouble.
To summarize (I hope), you aren't choosing between ADO.NET or ODBC.NET, but rather ODBC.NET, OleDB, or a Sybase specific .NET implementation. The best option being the last one.
Why? ODBC is older technology, and you may not be able to make full use of the available ADO.NET functionality.
Hope this helps, ( and that I didn't babble on too long  )

Please excuse me for butting in but I have a question.
You stated:
"ODBC.NET is a database/driver specific part of ADO.NET. Others are SqlClient for Sql Server, and OleDb for databases that have OleDb drivers available."
Does this mean that OleDb uses COM to tonnect to the database?
Does this also mean that if you don't want to use SQL Server then then the only way is to use COM?
The reason I am asking is because I am writing an application in which I wish to use an Access database. However, if the database doesn't exist, I want to programatically re-create the database.
I have done this in the past using VB6 but as I am now using .Net have been investigating ADO.Net. The problem is that all the examples/resources I have found only demonstrate database creation using the SQL Server which I don't want to use.

OleDb is COM based, if that is what you're asking. The are OleDb .NET class available, but they all ultimately talk to an underlying non .NET database driver.

No, there may be native .NET classes available for whatever data source you are using.
BusterG wrote:

Firstly, I don't have any experience when it comes to coding against an Access database, so I may be talking a load of rubbish.
If I were required to use an Access db, I would first check if a .NET specific addon/driver was available and that it is stable/supported. Failing that, I would use the OleDb classes in the .NET framework (System.Data.OleDb.*) to interface with the Jet database driver.
I'm not sure how one would go about creating an Access db programmatically though.
A quick google search indicates that there is no native .NET method of doing this. So you will have to use ADOX or some other method to create an empty database.

I don't know about Sybase, but with Oracle I've found that ODBC.NET works better than OleDb. The OleDb class doesn't support all the different field types available whereas ODBC.NET seems to.

Hi,
Is there a way to list all DB2 Servers on the network just like we do with SQLDMO for SQL Servers in C#.
Thanks and Regards,

I have Access 2000 database with number of forms. How can I make one of them default, which is loaded when database is opened?

Do you want to set this via the Microsoft Access application or through ADO/etc? I don't know about the latter approach (I've looked at all the "MSys" tables but can't see anything to suggest it, and the docs are useless as ever), but on the off chance it's the former look under "Tools | Startup..." in the main application menu.

Hiya does anyone have any tutorials or links on using C++ with SQL. I know C++ already but want to learn SQL. I will be using Visual C++ 6.0.
All I know is there is a header file called sql.h.
Thanks for any help..

I'll recommend that one too - W3Schools looks like a great site for learning and quick reference alike, and not just for SQL. It is now added to my bookmarks. 
I just took each of their quick tests and got...
HTML: 20/20
XHTML 17/20
CSS: 19/20
XML: 19/20
JavaScript: 20/20
ASP: 20/20
SQL: 20/20
...so I guess I'll be spending my afternoon reading through the XHTML and XML sections. (I only got the CSS question wrong because I missread the question. Honest. *cough* )
