CDaoFieldExchange::m_nOperation

Remarks

Identifies the operation to be performed on the CDaoRecordset object associated with the field exchange object. The CDaoFieldExchange object supplies the context for a number of different DFX operations on the recordset.

Note The PSEUDO NULL value described under the MarkForAddNew and SetFieldNull operations below is a value used to mark fields Null. The DAO record field exchange mechanism (DFX) uses this value to determine which fields have been explicitly marked Null. PSEUDO NULL is not required for COleDateTime and COleCurrency fields.

For more information about DFX and these operations, see the article DAO Record Field Exchange (DFX) in Visual C++ Programmer's Guide.
