Rowset Creation Example

The code in this example shows how to create a rowset.

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// myCreateRowset
//
//   This function creates an OLE DB Rowset object from the given
//   provider's Session object. It first obtains a default table
//   name from the user through the tables schema rowset, if
//   supported, then creates a Rowset object by one of two methods:
//
//   - If the user requested that the Rowset object be created
//     from a Command object, it creates a Command object, then
//     obtains command text from the user, sets properties and
//     the command text, and finally executes the command to
//     create the Rowset object
//   - Otherwise, the function obtains a table name from the user
//     and calls IOpenRowset::OpenRowset to create a Rowset object
//     over that table that supports the requested properties
//
