Displaying an Oracle 10G XE Table with Visual Basic 6.0
(Page 1 of 4 )
Visual Basic 6.0 is still a preferred programming option for many developers. With Oracle 10G XE being adopted by many because of its great number of virtues, connecting to Oracle with VB6 is bound to become very frequent. This tutorial shows how easy it is to display Tables, Views, and so forth from an Oracle 10G XE database in Visual Basic using the very versatile ADO Data Control.
Introduction
The ADO Data Control inherits many features from both DAO and RDO, its predecessors in data access. The data control will be using the ODBC connectivity with the database. Both VB6 and the Oracle 10G XE programs are on the same machine, XPHTEK, running on a Windows Professional XP operating system.
The objective of this tutorial is to show the steps that you should follow in displaying an Oracle 10G XE table, such as the one shown in the next picture.
Although there are 11 fields (columns) in this table we will display only a few of them.
