Using the Sample File

The sample uses an ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) command to submit a query to the Index Server using the MSIDXS OLE DB provider.

Here is the sample code:


   SELECT Filename, Size, Write, Path  FROM Scope()
   WHERE CONTAINS(\'\"Index and Server\"\') > 0
   ORDER BY Rank DESC" );

The sample also displays MSIDXS provider properties. Index Server 2.0 and the MSIDXS OLE DB provider ship with Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack.

For more information on Index Server, refer to Index Server documentation in Windows NT Option Pack documentation. The chapter "SQL Access to Index Server Data" is the best reference for SQL query syntax for Index Server.

This sample code is based on the Adovc.exe sample mentioned in the REFERENCES section.
