OK,
I looked at the examples in the SDK and other internet sources --- and
now I'm even more confused. I wish there was an example of someone
reading a transaction file and updating a table (add, update & delete
based on the transaction type). I've seen ASP code, C code & VB code
with ADO classic and ADO.NET, some with SQL, OleDB, ODBC, .....
Don't know which way to turn - just trying to get this task finished
(along with being guided down the correct path of learning about
this).
I've seen so much it really bluring. I thought my approach in the
code below was a good solution, but apparently not.
I need more help.
Can someone guide me closer to the objective?
Thanks,
Hexman
