The following code shows how to set the RDS.DataControl SQL parameter at design time and bind it to a data-aware control using the database called Pubs, that ships with SQL Server. To test the example, copy the following code into a normal ASP document named SQL.asp on your web server.
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<!-- RDS.DataControl -->
<OBJECT classid="clsid:BD96C556-65A3-11D0-983A-00C04FC29E33" ID=RDC HEIGHT=1 WIDTH=1>
<PARAM NAME="SQL" VALUE="Select * from Authors">
<PARAM NAME="SERVER" VALUE="http://<%=Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")%>">
<PARAM NAME="CONNECT" VALUE="dsn=Pubs;UID=sa;PWD=;">
</OBJECT>
<!-- Data Table -->

The following example shows how to set the necessary parameters of RDS.DataControl at run time. To test this example, cut and paste this code into a normal ASP document and name it SQL2.asp. ASP script will identify your server.
