Status Property Example (Recordset) (VB)

This example uses the Status property to display which records have been modified in a batch operation before a batch update has occurred.

Public Sub StatusX()

    Dim rstTitles As ADODB.Recordset
    Dim strCnn As String

    ' Open recordset for batch update.
    strCnn = "Provider=sqloledb;" & _
        "Data Source=srv;Initial Catalog=Pubs;User Id=sa;Password=; "
    Set rstTitles = New ADODB.Recordset
    rstTitles.CursorType = adOpenKeyset
    rstTitles.LockType = adLockBatchOptimistic
    rstTitles.Open "Titles", strCnn, , , adCmdTable

    ' Change the type of psychology titles.
    Do Until rstTitles.EOF
        If Trim(rstTitles!Type) = "psychology" Then
            rstTitles!Type = "self_help"
        End If
        rstTitles.MoveNext
    Loop

    ' Display Title ID and status.
    rstTitles.MoveFirst
    Do Until rstTitles.EOF
        If rstTitles.Status = adRecModified Then
            Debug.Print rstTitles!title_id & " - Modified"
        Else
            Debug.Print rstTitles!title_id
        End If
        rstTitles.MoveNext
    Loop

    ' Cancel the update because this is a demonstration.
    rstTitles.CancelBatch
    rstTitles.Close

End Sub
