Appendix F: Sample OLE DB Consumer Application

This sample demonstrates the rowset programming and object model for an OLE DB consumer. It creates data source, session, and rowset objects; allows the user to display and navigate the rows in the rowset; and handles errors, if any. Command line switches determine whether an enumerator, class ID, user prompt, or connection string is used to create the data source object, whether or not a command is used to create the rowset, and so on.

Sample OLE DB Consumer Application Source

Source files for the Sample OLE DB Consumer Application are located in the PRSample directory where the OLE DB samples are installed, and consist of the following files:
