ADO Property

ADO objects expose various properties that provide information about the object or allow control over its behavior. These properties are essential for configuring and optimizing database interactions.

Key Topics

Recordset Properties

Example

<%
    Dim conn, rs
    Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    conn.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=MyDatabase;User ID=myUser;Password=myPassword;"

    Set rs = conn.Execute("SELECT * FROM Employees")

    Response.Write("EOF: " & rs.EOF & "<br>")
    Response.Write("BOF: " & rs.BOF & "<br>")
    Response.Write("Record Count: " & rs.RecordCount & "<br>")

    rs.Close
    conn.Close
    Set rs = Nothing
    Set conn = Nothing
%>

Explanation: This example demonstrates how to access Recordset properties like EOF, BOF, and RecordCount.

Connection Properties

Example

<%
    Dim conn
    Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    conn.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=MyDatabase;User ID=myUser;Password=myPassword;"

    Response.Write("Connection State: " & conn.State & "<br>")
    Response.Write("Connection Timeout: " & conn.ConnectionTimeout & " seconds<br>")

    conn.Close
    Set conn = Nothing
%>

Explanation: This example demonstrates accessing Connection properties like State and ConnectionTimeout.

Key Takeaways

  • ADO properties provide information and control over object behavior.
  • Common properties include EOF, BOF, and RecordCount for Recordsets.
  • Connection properties like State and ConnectionTimeout enhance connection management.
