Some basic steps are required in order to be able to access and manipulate data using ADO : Create a connection object to connect to the database. Create a recordset object in order to receive data in. Open the connection; Populate the recordset by opening it and passing the desired table name or SQL statement as a parameter to open function.
Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC; also known as Windows DAC) is a framework of interrelated Microsoft technologies that allows programmers a uniform and comprehensive way of developing applications that can access almost any data store. Its components include: ActiveX Data Objects (ADO), OLE DB, and Open Database Connectivity (ODBC).
ActiveX Document is a Microsoft technology that allows users to view and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PDF documents inside web browsers. Active Messaging, later renamed Collaboration Data Objects; Active Server Pages (ASP) ActiveMovie, later renamed DirectShow; ActiveX Data Objects (ADO)
It is commonly used by programmers to access and modify data stored in relational database systems, though it can also access data in non-relational data sources. ADO.NET is sometimes considered an evolution of ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) technology, but was changed so extensively that it can be considered an entirely new product.
ActiveX Data Objects ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) (both 32-bit and 64-bit versions) As well as DAO and ADO, developers can also use OLE DB and ODBC for developing native C/C++ programs for Access. [45] For ADPs and the direct manipulation of SQL Server data, ADO is required.
The Active Template Library (ATL) is a set of template-based C++ classes developed by Microsoft, intended to simplify the programming of Component Object Model (COM) objects. The COM support in Microsoft Visual C++ allows developers to create a variety of COM objects, OLE Automation servers, and ActiveX controls.
The design of an application must take this into account so that objects are not left orphaned. Objects may also be left with active reference counts if the COM "event sink" model is used. Since the object that fires the event needs a reference to the object reacting to the event, the latter's reference count will never reach zero.
The DM can enumerate the installed drivers and present this as a list, often in a GUI-based form. But more important to the operation of the ODBC system is the DM's concept of a Data Source Name (DSN). DSNs collect additional information needed to connect to a specific data source, versus the DBMS itself.
