 Freeware * New Tool for ADO Development

Hello,

we released a new tool for ADO development as freeware: bAsk - blueshell ADO
Survey Kit. It is a DLL that you may link to your VB project, permanently or
during development only. Then you may e.g. launch (via debug window or by
your program code) with View.recMyRecordset a viewer that shows you all the
static and dynamic properties of the object (recMyRecordset in this
example). There are Viewers for all Objects and they are connected. For
example: You may jump from the recordset viewer via its Fields collection to
the field viewer.

Interesting...

FYI...  you can also view any of the ADO object values when in VB IDE debug
mode.  Just break point on a line after opening the ADO object, then select
"View | Locals Window", then drill down on the ADO object.

Indeed...

...but did you notice that bAsk presents this data in a way you can use it?

Example 1: The Locals Window shows you that your fld.Attributes is 102,
while bAsk tells you that this consists of adFldMayDefer + adFldUpdateable +
adFldIsNullable + adFldMayBeNull.

Example 2: The Locals Window tells you that your Recordset object's
Properties Collection contains Item1 and Item2 and Item3 and ... and Item67.
You could even open each Item to see what's its Name! bASk gives you a
scrollable list with names and values.

Best regards

Harry,
Agreed. The VB "Locals Window" does present the data as well as your
freeware tool.  Good job!

sit on the fence! <g>

Paul,
It was a correction.  I left the word "NOT" out of the sentence in my first
reply...
