Value Property Example (VB)

This example demonstrates the Value property with Field and Property objects by displaying field and property values for the Employees table.

Public Sub ValueX()

    Dim rstEmployees As ADODB.Recordset
    Dim fldLoop As ADODB.Field
    Dim prpLoop As ADODB.Property
    Dim strCnn As String

    ' Open recordset with data from Employees table.
    strCnn = "Provider=sqloledb;" & _
        "Data Source=srv;Initial Catalog=Pubs;User Id=sa;Password=; "
    Set rstEmployees = New ADODB.Recordset
    rstEmployees.Open "employee", strCnn, , , adCmdTable

    Debug.Print "Field values in rstEmployees"
    ' Enumerate the Fields collection of the Employees
    ' table.
    For Each fldLoop In rstEmployees.Fields
        ' Because Value is the default property of a 
        ' Field object, the use of the actual keyword
        ' here is optional.
        Debug.Print "    " & fldLoop.Name & " = " & fldLoop.Value
    Next fldLoop

    Debug.Print "Property values in rstEmployees"
    ' Enumerate the Properties collection of the
    ' Recordset object.
    For Each prpLoop In rstEmployees.Properties
        ' Because Value is the default property of a 
        ' Property object, the use of the actual keyword
        ' here is optional.
        Debug.Print "    " & prpLoop.Name & " = " & prpLoop.Value
    Next prpLoop

    rstEmployees.Close
