Making a connection to a data source

The first step in accessing a data source via ADO is creating an ADO Connection object. This is typically done using a connection string to specify the data source parameters, although it is also possible to open a DSN connection by passing the DSN, user ID, and password to the .Open method. Note t...

Creating parameterized commands

Any time SQL executed through an ADO connection needs to contain user input, it is considered best practice to parameterize it in order to minimize the chance of SQL injection. This method is also more readable than long concatenations and facilitates more robust and maintainable code (i.e. by using...
