ActiveX Data Objects (ADO)
• Does for Microsoft data sources what ODBC did for databases
– similar in concept to the combination JDBC and JNDI (and then some)
• The process of using ADO involves the four step process:
– Connect to the database
– Define the data you want
– Manipulate the data
– Display the data

ADO, ODBC and OLE DB
• ADO is the strategic way for using ODBC data sources on the
Windows platform
• ODBC was the MS way of connecting to and using databases on the
Windows platform.
• OLE DB extends ODBC by using the concept of service providers to
add the ability to connect to other non-database data sources (MS
Active Directory (LDAP), e-mail servers (Exchange))
– ODBC Data Sources; provider = MSDASQL
– MS Index Server; provider = MSIDXS
– MS Active Directory Server - provider = ADSD300Object
– MS Jet databases - provider = Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.3.51
– MS SQL Server - provider = SQLOLEDB
– Oracle Databases - provider = MSDAORA

All About ADO
• To learn more about goto:

– http://www.w3schools.com/ado/default.asp
Creating a CreateObject
• Connection objects are created using the CreateObject() function.
– The only parameter is a string indicating the object to create
• object_library_name.object
Dim cn ‘create a variable to hold a reference to the object

Set cn = CreateObject(“ADODB.Connection”)
ConnectionString
• Once the ConnectionObject is created we need to give it a
ConnectionString to logon to the datasource
• ConnectionString specifies the :
– provider
– datasource name
– userid (optional)
– password (optional)
Dim cnn
Dim str str = “Provider=MSDASQL; Data Source=mydatasource; User Id=;Password=“
cnn.ConnectionString = str
Open() and Close()
• Once the connection has been established the Connection must be
opened before using it
• Likewise it should be closed when done.
Dim cnn
Dim str
Set cnn = CreateObject(‘ADODB.Connection’)
str = “Provider=MSDASQL.1,Data Source=mydatasource;”
str = str & User TD=myuserid;Password=mypass”
cnn.ConnectionString = str
cnn.Open
…..
cnn.Close
Recordset
• Record set objects are the recipients of the result of a SQL query
• create the Connection object the create a recordset object and associate
them
Dim cnn
Dim rs
set cnn = CreateObject(“ADODB.Connection”)
set rs = CreateObject(“ADODB.Recordset”)
‘ assocoate the record set with the connection
rs.ActiveConnection = cnn
To use the Recordset, Open it
‘from previous code...

Dim SQL
SQL = “SELECT…..FROM…..”
rs.Open SQL
…you can abbreviate this by doing the association at the same time as the Open
rs.Open SQL, cnn

… this will eliminate the need for the rs.ActiveConnection = cnn statement
Getting the data out
• The record set is a collection of rows, each row containing the data in
the order that it was asked for in the SQL statement, each column in
the row can be accessed by its column name
• for: SELECT CourseName from CourseTable
Dim string
While Not rs.EOF
string = string & rs(“CourseName”) & “<br>”
rs.MoveNext
Wend
Getting data in
• To get data into an ADO data source use the ADO command object.
• Use this for the SQL
– insert
– update
– and delete statements
Dim SQL
Dim Cmd
Set cmd = CreateObject(“ADODB.Command”) ‘create a command object
SQL = “INSERT into …..”
cmd.CommandText = SQL ‘set the CommandTexy property of the CommandObject
cmd.ActiveConnection = cnn
cmd.Execute
Display records from a database in an HTML Page
<html>
<body>
<%
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open(Server.Mappath("northwind.mdb"))
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open "Select * from Customers", conn
do until rs.EOF
for each x in rs.Fields
Response.Write(x.name)
Response.Write(" = ")
Response.Write(x.value & "<br />")
next
Response.Write("<br />")
rs.MoveNext
loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</body>
</html>
Put the data in a table with colors and titles
<html>
<body>
<%
sql="SELECT Companyname, Contactname FROM Customers"
rs.Open sql, conn
%>
<table border="1" width="100%" bgcolor="#fff5ee">
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields
response.write("<th align='left' bgcolor='#b0c4de'>" & x.name & "</th>")
next%>
</tr>
<%do until rs.EOF%>
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields%>
<td><%Response.Write(x.value)%></td>
<%next
rs.MoveNext%>
</tr>
<%loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Another example, make data on page sortable by user
<html>
<body>
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
<td><a href="demo_sort2.asp?sort=companyname">Company</a></td>
<td><a href="demo_sort2.asp?sort=contactname">Contact Name</a></td>
</tr>
<%
dim conn,rs,sort
sort="companyname"
if Request.QueryString("sort")<>"" then
sort=Request.QueryString("sort")
end if
set rs=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open "SELECT Companyname,Contactname FROM Customers ORDER BY " & sort,conn
do until rs.EOF%>
<tr>
<%for each x in rs.Fields%>
<td><%Response.Write(x.value)%> </td>
<%next
rs.MoveNext%>
</tr>
<%loop
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</table>
</body>
</html>
Using the Recordset Object This example returns the value of the first column in the first two records:
ALFKI
ANTON
This example returns the value of the first three columns in the first record:
ALFKI
<body> Alfreds Futterkiste
<% Maria Anders
rs.Open "Select * from Customers", conn
'The first number indicates how many records to copy
'The second number indicates what recordnumber to start on
p=rs.GetRows(2,0)
response.write("<p>This example returns the value of the first column in the first two records:</p>")
response.write(p(0,0))
response.write("<br>")
response.write("<p>This example returns the value of the first three columns in the first record:</p>")
rs.close
conn.close
%>
</body>
</html>
ADO.NET
• Under .NET, ADO hasn’t changed much but the way you use it has
– VB has changed extensively under .NET so we won’t address its use with
VB (developer community isn’t real happy about this)
– the ADO API is pretty consistent across the MS supported .NET
languages
• Consists of the namespaces and classes that manage accessing
backend databases.
– five namespaces
• the most common are:
– Ststem.Data
– System.Data.OleDB
– System.Data.SqlClient
– hundreds of classes
the .NET Data Provider
.NET Data Provider
DataReader
Connection Command
Transaction Parameters
DB
SelectCommand UpdateCommand
InmsertCommand DeleteCommand
.NET DataSet
DataSet
DataTableCollection
DataTable
DataRowCollection
DataColumnCollection
ConstraintCollection
DataRelationshipCollection
System.Data Namespace
• Consists mainly of classes that make up

ADO.NET
• Allows a developer to build components
that manage data from data sources
System.Data.OleDb Namespace
• Ole DB .Net Data Provider

• Designed to be a replacement for ODBC
• Used for accessing different kinds of data
stores uniformly
– non-relational databases
• Dbase, Foxpro, Access
• Spreadsheets
System.Data.SqlClient Namespace
• .NET data provider for MS SQL Server

• classes bypass OLE DB to interact directly
with SQL Server
– increase performance for SQL Server access
MySql.Data.MySqlClient
• namespace containing classes for accessing

MySQL databases
• provided by MySQL organization
IBM.Data.DB2 namespace
• namespace for using IBM DB2 databases

with .NET
• Provided by IBM with the DB2 product
Oracle.DataAccess.Client
• namespace used for accessing Oracle

databases from .NET
• provided by Oracle with Oracle product
