OpenDatabase Method Example

This example demonstrates how to create a dynaset and all of the underlying objects programmatically. Copy and paste this code into the definition section of a form with text boxes named txtEmpNo and txtEName. Then press F5.

Sub Form_Load ()

'Declare variables

Dim OraSession As OraSession

Dim OraDatabase As OraDatabase

Dim OraDynaset As OraDynaset

'Create the OraSession Object.

Set OraSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")

'Create the OraDatabase Object by opening a connection to Oracle.

Set OraDatabase = OraSession.OpenDatabase("ExampleDb", "scott/tiger", 0&)

'Create the OraDynaset Object.

Set OraDynaset = OraDatabase.CreateDynaset("select empno, ename from emp", 0&)

'Display the first record.

txtEmpNo = OraDynaset.Fields("empno").value

txtEName = OraDynaset.Fields("ename").value

End Sub
