Put them [their ID] in an array,
randomly take one and label that arrayitem,
replace the array with one without the labeled one,
do the above 5 times.

I keep having problems in which ADO disconnected recordset work under some circumstances, but lose all their data at other times, having no rows or fields, though the recordset object still exists. One case where this happened to me today was in trying to store disconnected recordsets in a cache collection in case they are needed again later in the same session. When I retrieve the recordset from the collection, it's empty. On the other...

The answer to this one is probably "test it yourself and find out!", but I'll ask anyway. Pursuant to my previous question - sending separate recordsets to Word using the CreateTableFromRecordset code from ADH2000... I will be opening like 8 recordsets {one for each building, and there are 8). Would I be better off or is there anything to be gained by opening one recordset of the query with _all_ the records in it, filtering that, and...

Hi all, I recently rewrote a data intensive C++ program in C#. The C++ program was traversing 3 recordsets that were all open at the same time. I replaced those 3 recordsets with 3 .NET data readers and found that my C# code takes only about 35% of the time that the old C++ program took to execute. I'm amazed at this performance improvement, but finding it hard to believe. I'm supposed to make a recommendation based on my test results.

I was inspired by the recent discussion of returning multiple recordsets to ADO from a stored procedure. (Amazed is probably more accurate). I asked about how to accomplish same with Oracle and got a nudge in the right direction from Mr. Kreft. I promised to provide details once working, so here it is. The code is shown below. My next step is to build this technique into my application. I'm hoping for substantial performance gain. ...

I want to populate an array with values from an ado recordset (multiple rows) I use the absolute position of the cursor in the recordset to define the row of my array to be populated. I have a workaround for lack of a way to define the ordinal position of a field (incrementing a counter variable), but it feels so primitive: dim Fld as Field dim rst1 as new adodb.recordset

I'm building a vb.net Forms project that is getting data from a SQL Server database. One of the main goals of the project is to be really responsive to events, such as textbox change events.

My question is: should I load the controls with objects, and therefore store everything in...

Can someone help me with creating code that will look for DAO recordsets in modules and then check to see if the recordset is also closed in the module. All of my recordsets are of the form rs* where * is a wildcard for letters after rs. Thanks. -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
