Cursor Service for OLE DB
The Cursor Service is an underlying technology that is hidden from the ADO user. Each occurrence of a data fetch operation will automatically load the data as a recordset into the Cursor Service. For the OLE DB developer, the Cursor Service is invoked using the IRowset interface. Invoking the Cursor Service is illustrated in the Data Fetch example.
