Re: Bookmarks with .net



Don,

Thanks for posting the answer to your question. It helped me out on a
similar question.

I, too, am programming in ADO (classic) while using Visual Studio 2005.
For those who find this strange, we are doing exactly what Microsoft
suggests when upgrading a VB6 project: upgrading in stages (i.e.
continue to use recordsets until the rest of the project is upgraded,
then switch to ADO.NET). It seems to me that you posted your question
in the right newsgroup.

Are you programming in ADO.NET or ADO?
If you are using VB.NET it seems odd that you are using it in conjunction
with ADO (not impossible) rather than ADO.NET.
ADO questions are answered here.
But ADO.NET questions are answered on
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet

Is ADO not implemented into multiple languages?

Yes it is. It is COM-based, so any language will work that works with COM

If you can't answer my question then why waste my time since it is clear
that you to are one of the clueless .NET programmers.

Actually I don't programme in .NET at all.
Just Win32 with ADO (and not ADO.NET).

At least you replied. This is the first time I tried a newsgroup and I found
the
answer myself anyway. If you would like a piece of info on bookmarks. In VB6
they are declared as a Variant but actually are an unsigned integer. In VB.Net
even though Microsoft tells you they are an Unsigned integer to be declared as
Uint64 It will not work. You need to declare it as a Double. So if someone
else
should find themselves stuck in this web of unclarity please pass this info
on.
Have a great day.
