These classes work with the other application framework classes to give easy access to DAO (Data Access Object) databases, which use the same database engine as Microsoft Visual Basic® and Microsoft Access. The DAO classes can also access a wide variety of databases for which Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) drivers are available.
Programs that use DAO databases will have at least a CDaoDatabase object and a CDaoRecordset object.
Manages a named, password-protected database session from login to logoff. Most programs use the default workspace.
A connection to a database through which you can operate on the data.
Represents a set of records selected from a data source.
A view that displays database records in controls.
Represents a query definition, usually one saved in a database.
Represents the stored definition of a base table or an attached table.
Represents an exception condition arising from the DAO classes.
Supports the DAO record field exchange (DFX) routines used by the DAO database classes. You will normally not directly use this class.
