How To Invoke a Parameterized ADO Query Using VBA/C++/Java

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=181734

MORE INFORMATION

All of the following code samples assume that an ODBC Data Source named "BIBLIO" that points to the Biblio.mdb file that ships with Visual Basic 5.0 and 6.0 exists. A parameterized query against the Authors table is performed, returning a recordset with all records where the field Au_ID < 5, and using a parameterized SQL statement. These code snippets are abbreviated from the ADO samples listed in the REFERENCES section.

VBA within Visual Basic or Microsoft Access and VBScript from ASP

Dim Conn1 As ADODB.ConnectionDim Cmd1 As ADODB.CommandDim Param1 As ADODB.ParameterDim Rs1 As ADODB.RecordsetDim i As Integer' Trap any error/exception.On Error Resume Next' Create and Open Connection Object.Set Conn1 = New ADODB.ConnectionConn1.ConnectionString = "DSN=Biblio;UID=admin;PWD=;"Conn1.Open' Create Command Object.Set Cmd1 = New ADODB.CommandCmd1.ActiveConnection = Conn1Cmd1.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM Authors WHERE AU_ID < ?"' Create Parameter Object.Set Param1 = Cmd1.CreateParameter(, adInteger, adParamInput, 5)Param1.Value = 5Cmd1.Parameters.Append Param1Set Param1 = Nothing' Open Recordset Object.Set Rs1 = Cmd1.Execute()

For VBScript users, you would replace the Dim statements with equivalent CreateObject calls, such as:

   Set conn1 = CreateObject( "ADODB.Connection.1.5" )

As ADO 1.x is not binary compatible, it is helpful to specify which version of ADO your script is referencing.

C++ Using #import

#import "C:/Program Files/Common Files/System/ado/msado15.dll" /           rename( "EOF", "adoEOF" )   ...   _variant_t  vtEmpty (DISP_E_PARAMNOTFOUND, VT_ERROR);   _variant_t  vtEmpty2(DISP_E_PARAMNOTFOUND, VT_ERROR);   ...   ADODB::_ConnectionPtr  Conn1;   ADODB::_CommandPtr     Cmd1;   ADODB::_ParameterPtr   Param1;   ADODB::_RecordsetPtr   Rs1;   // Trap any error/exception.   try   {       // Create and Open Connection Object.       Conn1.CreateInstance( __uuidof( ADODB::Connection ) );       Conn1->ConnectionString =                           _bstr_t(L"DSN=Biblio;UID=adimin;PWD=;");       Conn1->Open( _bstr_t(L""), _bstr_t(L""), _bstr_t(L""), -1 );       // Create Command Object.       Cmd1.CreateInstance( __uuidof( ADODB::Command ) );       Cmd1->ActiveConnection = Conn1;       Cmd1->CommandText = _bstr_t(L"SELECT * FROM Authors "                                   L"WHERE Au_ID < ?");       // Create Parameter Object.       Param1 = Cmd1->CreateParameter( _bstr_t(L""),                                       ADODB::adInteger,                                       ADODB::adParamInput,                                       -1,                                       _variant_t( (long) 5) );       Param1->Value = _variant_t( (long) 5 );       Cmd1->Parameters->Append( Param1 );       // Open Recordset Object.       Rs1 = Cmd1->Execute( &vtEmpty, &vtEmpty2, ADODB::adCmdText );   }   catch( CException *e ) { e->Delete(); }   catch(...)             {  }

For a demonstration of how to use a Parameterized Query either with classes generated by the Microsoft Foundation Class (MFC) ClassWizard, or using straight COM programming, please see the ADOVC sample referenced in the REFERENCES section.

Java

   msado15._Connection  Conn1   = new msado15.Connection();   msado15._Command     Cmd1    = null;   msado15._Recordset   Rs1     = new msado15.Recordset();   boolean              bEOF;   Variant              v1      = new Variant();   Variant              v2      = new Variant();   // Trap any error/exception.   try   {       // Create and Open Connection Object.       Conn1.putConnectionString( bstrAccessConnect );       Conn1.Open( bstrEmpty, bstrEmpty, bstrEmpty, -1 );       // Create Command Object.       Cmd1= new msado15.Command();       Cmd1.putActiveConnection( Conn1 );       Cmd1.putCommandText( "SELECT * FROM Authors WHERE Au_ID < ?" );       // Create Parameter Object.       v1.putString( "P1" );       v2.putInt( 5 );       Cmd1.getParameters().Append(            Cmd1.CreateParameter( v1.getString(),                         msado15.DataTypeEnum.adInteger,                         msado15.ParameterDirectionEnum.adParamInput,                         0,                         v2 ) );       // Open Recordset Object.       Rs1 = Cmd1.Execute( vtEmpty, vtEmpty2,                           msado15.CommandTypeEnum.adCmdText );       Rs1.Requery( -1 );   }   // Catch Blocks   catch (com.ms.com.ComFailException e) { }   catch(Exception e)                    { }

In this case, the requery may be necessary after opening the recordset.
