Constant Description
DBPROPVAL_BMK_NUMERIC The bookmark type is numeric. Numeric bookmarks are based on a row property that is not dependent on the values in the columns of the row. For example, they can be based on the absolute position of the row within a recordset or on a row ID that the storage engine assigns to the row at its creation. The validity of numeric bookmarks is not changed by modifying the columns in a row.
DBPROPVAL_BMK_KEY The bookmark type is key. Key bookmarks are based on the values of one or more of the columns in a row. These values form a unique key for each row. A key bookmark may be left dangling if the key values of the corresponding row are changed.
