See the ADO wrapper library here.[^]
Use the parameterless constructor to create the recordset. Use AppendField to puplulate the columns, then OpenDisconnected to open it for adding rows, etc. You will likely need to add a function to clone and return the member m_pRecordset (_Recordset*), but the existing Clone function should show the way...

Thanks for the suggestion. However, I can't afford to add the overhead of this project just to get a recordset.
All I'm looking for is a way to create a recordset without a connection, session, etc. This must be a simple thing for someone who works with ADO everyday, but it is a puzzle for me!

First, it's not that much overhead.
second, you could just examine the source and look at the functions i mentioned to see how they are imlemented. The OpenDisconnected does just what you are looking for.
If you dont wan/need the whole libratry, just copy the couple of functions you need into a trimmed-down class...

I want to develope a small db app in vc++6. My only requirement is that my users not have to install anything other than my app (and maybe a later version of mdac).
Is ADO okay for this?
Can someone recommend a good book about it?

Hi, I have a SQL database with usernames and passwords.
1)Now I need find a user name (which user wrote into textbox) and prove the password.
2)I have a registration page, it works well, but I would like to search the database before I add the new record to it, (no duplicity)
3)How can I delete a record? (update record)
Thanks very much for your answer

None of these questions can be answered without knowing the schema of your database, you should be able to answer them all from the books online, and this smells like homework

1. For security you should always store the passwords in an encrypted form. When the user registers for the first type encrypt the password. When the user logs in on subsequent sessions encrypt the password again and search for the encrypted version of the password.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myRegistrationTable WHERE UserName=@userName AND EncryptedPassword=@encryptedPassword The above code will return 0 if the user name and password cannot be found, or 1 otherwise. If it returns any other value the database contains duplicate information.
2. You can apply a unique constraint to the table to ensure that no duplicates are entered. Also the primary key is by default a unique value - so sufficient uniqueness may already be covered. If you do this SQL Server will raise an error when you perform your insert and you can pick this up in your .NET application by catching the SqlException that is generated.
You could also write a stored procedure that checks for the existance of a record first then conditionally inserts the new record if there isn't one already.
3. Use the DELETE command.
Does this help?

I've seen lots of reference to RDA and Merge using IIS and SqlServer.
What if we don't use SqlServer, we use Oracle?
Is there another way to sync our PPCs?

Hi!
I'm new to oracle and i'm trying to connect to a remote oracle db server. I use the following connection string:
string strConn = "Provider=OraOLEDB;DataSource=<dbname>;User ID=<usrid>;Password=<pwd>";
I get the error: The provider OraOLEDB is not registered on the local machine.
What does this means? The provider is installed on the server. Do I have to install it on the local machine too?
Can someone please help me...

Yes, if this is a desktop application. No, if you are talking to a web page.

Thx for response.
Now i have installed the oracle provider for oledb on my local machine. I have the following method for connecting to the db:
public void createOLEDBConn()
{
string strConn = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=<dbname>;User Id=dummy;Password=dummy";
OleDbConnection myOleDbConn = new OleDbConnection(strConn);
MessageBox.Show("Just before open!");
myOleDbConn.Open();
MessageBox.Show( myOleDbConn.ServerVersion.ToString(), "Test Conn");
myOleDbConn.Close();
}
The first messagebox is being showned, but when I call the open method, the application just waits and I have to stop it myself. I don't know why. Do you?? The dummy user is one I created on the server

Hi
I use ADO (MDAC 2.8) in a multithreaded application
I call the Connection's Execute method from more than 1 thread.
Is this safe ? or must I use a critical section to protect this operation ?
|
|
|
|
|
ADO's objects are marked ThreadingModel=Apartment in the registry. COM will marshal any calls back to the thread which created the object. This means that concurrent calls will get queued up until the creating thread is ready to handle them.
If this is a problem, create a separate Connection object on each thread.
Stability. What an interesting concept. -- Chris Maunder

thank you for the reply
this behavior will not cause problems..It looks safe and that's what I need..
being queued will not cause a big performance problem at all.

I have the following query
<br />
SELECT *<br />
FROM (((((SK_SKILLSINAGES AS sia LEFT JOIN SK_SKILLS AS s ON (sia.SkillCode = s.SkillCode) OR (sia.SkillCode = s.ParentSkillCode AND sia.SubSkillCode = s.SkillCode)) INNER JOIN SK_CATEGORY AS c ON sia.CategoryCode = c.CategoryCode) INNER JOIN SK_CATEGORYGROUPS AS cg ON (sia.GroupCode = cg.GroupCode) AND (cg.GroupCode = c.GroupCode)) INNER JOIN AG_AGESINERAS AS ae ON sia.AgeCode = ae.AgeCode) INNER JOIN AG_ERA AS e ON ae.EraCode = e.EraCode) INNER JOIN PR_DEVELOPMENTPOINTS AS pd ON (sia.CategoryCode = pd.CategoryCode) AND (sia.GroupCode = pd.GroupCode)<br />
WHERE ( (sia.SubSkillCode Is Null AND s.ParentSkillCode Is Null) OR (sia.SubSkillCode Is Not Null AND s.ParentSkillCode Is Not Null) AND sia.CategoryCode = c.CategoryCode AND sia.GroupCode = cg.GroupCode AND sia.AgeCode = ae.AgeCode) AND ae.Description = 'Middle Ages' AND e.Description = 'Rolemaster' AND pd.ProfessionCode = 'ANIMIST'<br />
ORDER BY sia.AgeCode, sia.GroupCode, sia.CategoryCode, sia.SkillCode, sia.SubSkillCode;<br />
I have created an index for each of the fields that are being joined and have created an multiple field index for the sort criteria in SK_SKILLSINAGES however this query still takes a long time to load; around ten seconds. If I remove the ORDER BY sort criteria the query is much much faster. Might I be forgetting something crucial that could help speed up this query. It all seems dependant on the sort.
Thanks!

I would suggest you run this through the Index Tuning Wizard. Blindly creating indexes isn't really the way to go.

I see that the Index Tuning Wizard is a relic of Microsoft SQL Server database, something I don't have. I am using Microsoft Access and access the jet database through ADO. This could be the reason in itself but with that I don't know. Without having to install an SQL server database package might there be another solution.
I actually managed to get a few indexes in place to get a sorted result so I can remove the ORDER BY stuff, however the query still takes a long time to load. When the statement is calling a simple table to return roughly the same number of records it goes fast, but when I introduce JOIN statements, it gets slow.

True. I meant it in a good way.

Try the following:
SELECT *
FROM SK_SKILLSINAGES AS sia
INNER JOIN AG_AGESINERAS AS ae
ON sia.AgeCode = ae.AgeCode
AND ae.Description = 'Middle Ages'
INNER JOIN SK_CATEGORYGROUPS AS cg
ON sia.GroupCode = cg.GroupCode
INNER JOIN SK_CATEGORY AS c
ON sia.CategoryCode = c.CategoryCode
INNER JOIN AG_ERA AS e
ON ae.EraCode = e.EraCode
AND e.Description = 'Rolemaster'
INNER JOIN PR_DEVELOPMENTPOINTS AS pd
ON sia.CategoryCode = pd.CategoryCode
AND sia.GroupCode = pd.GroupCode
AND pd.ProfessionCode = 'ANIMIST'
LEFT JOIN SK_SKILLS AS s
ON (sia.SkillCode = s.SkillCode)
OR (sia.SkillCode = s.ParentSkillCode AND sia.SubSkillCode = s.SkillCode))
WHERE ( (sia.SubSkillCode Is Null AND s.ParentSkillCode Is Null)
OR (sia.SubSkillCode Is Not Null AND s.ParentSkillCode Is Not Null)
ORDER BY sia.AgeCode, sia.GroupCode, sia.CategoryCode, sia.SkillCode, sia.SubSkillCode;
I have tried to simplify and reorder the SQL. You have a number of joins that restrict the number of records returned (e.g. your "pd.ProfessionCode = 'ANIMIST'" clause). You might want to try moving the more restrictive tables to the top of the "from" clause.
My guess is that the "or" statements involved with the link to SK_SKILLS are the big performance drain (because many databases won't bother to use the indexes) You can test this by removing that part of the statement). A possible way of getting around the "OR" problem is to use a union-join:
SELECT * FROM tables
WHERE sia.SkillCode = s.SkillCode
UNION ALL
SELECT * FROM tables
WHERE sia.SkillCode = s.ParentSkillCode
AND sia.SubSkillCode = s.SkillCode
ORDER BY <columns>
This approach allows the database engine to use separate indexes for the two different links to the skills table.
Hope this helps.

You're right about the OR in the SQL. It seems if I remove it, the query goes through faster. Using the UNION query does solve the problem too. Thanks for the reply!

I have a slight problem inserting the proper result into an MS-SQL table. The result should be <14> however all I get is PRE. BTW, the SQL command not broken appart like you see it on this limited width posting..........
I thought using single quotes desiganted a 'string'? Help........
string pattern1 = @"(<\d{2,3}>)";
Regex r1 = new Regex(pattern1, RegexOptions.Compiled);
Match PRE = r1.Match(stringOfData);
{
try
{
connection1.Open();
SqlDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.CommandText = "INSERT INTO
tblMyUdpServer (col_PRE) VALUES ('PRE')";
SqlDataAdapter1.SelectCommand.ExecuteNonQuery();
connection1.Close();
}
catch(SqlException error)
{
MessageBox.Show(error.Message.ToString());
}
listBox1.Items.Add(PRE.ToString());
}
}
