Description
Fast, consistent, and highly productive, ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) is the best of Microsoft's many data access programming models. This comprehensive tutorial will give any experienced VB developer true mastery over ADO. Filled with examples, tips, and solved problems from cover to cover, this is the comprehensive ADO guide for experienced Visual Basic developers. Master the ADO object model from start to finish -- database tools, creating data objects, Remote Data Service, data shaping, using the ADO control in Visual Basic applications, and ADO integration with Microsoft Internet Explorer. Learn how to use ADO to get high-performance access to data, whether you're creating a front-end database client or middle-tier business object, using an application, tool, language, or even an Internet browser. For every Visual Basic programmer who needs to access information stored in databases.
