Recordset in Visual Basic 6

Introduction Recordset is logical set of records where Microsoft defines a record as 'A set of related data about a person, place, event or some other item'. Table data is stored in records (rows) in the database. Each record is composed of a set of related fields (columns) - each field defining one attribute of information for the record. Taken together, a record defines one specific unit of retrievable information in a database. There are five types of Recordset: (i) Table-type Recordset Basically it is a complete table from a database. We can use to add, change or delete records. This is the simplest in concept since it matches a complete table in the database, but is not necessarily the best choice in many applications. (ii) Dynaset-type Recordset The result of a query that can have updatable records, we can use to add, change or delete records. It can contain fields from one or more tables in a database and it provides worse performance than a ta...

What is Intellisense?

Intellisense Remember some program coding, when you type code in editors, Intellisense offers you a choice of words automatically. This feature is called Intellisense. It helps you to write code faster and even to avoid errors by proposing to you a choice according to what you are currently writing. In Visual Studio, when Intellisense proposes a choice to you, you can use the key combination Ctrl+Spacebar to complete the word you started to type. Intellisense is used in multiple circumstances: • When you declare a new variable by typing a class name, Intellisense offers you a choice of all the types currently available, grouped by namespace. A short documentation is also displayed, if available for that. • When you want to use a variable declared somewhere else by you, Intellisense proposes all variables currently accessible. • When you type a class name followed by a period, or an instance name followed by a period, Intellisense presents all the methods available in ...
