Step 4: Server Returns the Recordset (RDS Tutorial)

RDS converts the retrieved Recordset object to a form that can be sent back to the client (that is, it marshals the Recordset). The exact form of the conversion and how it is sent depends on whether the server is on the Internet or an intranet, a local area network, or is a dynamic-link library. However, this detail is not critical; all that matters is that RDS sends the Recordset back to the client.

On the client side, a Recordset object is returned and assigned to a local variable.

   Set RS = DF.Query("DSN=Pubs", "SELECT * FROM Authors")
