how to translate VB6.0 ADO to .net

[michelle]

Dear VB users,

Is there someone who can translate the next source to .net?
Wich references do we need to choose?

Set DB = New Connection
DB.Open “connection to sql or mdb”

Set AdoSet = New Recordset
SqlStr = "SELECT * FROM tblMine'"
AdoSet.Open SqlStr, DB

If Not AdoSet.EOF Then
‘. . . . . . . . . .
End If

Thanks for reading,

Michelle

Here is some code on doing what you want to do, but you may want to do some more reading on the new OleDb stuff in .net so you can make the best use of the new functionality.

Dim objConn as OleDb.OleDbConnection
'Set our connection string 
        sConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & _
   "Data Source=dbpath;" & _
   "User Id=admin;" & _
   "Password="
 
 
        'Create the connection
        objConn = New OleDb.OleDbConnection(sConn)
        objConn.Open()
 
    dim objCommand as OleDb.OleDbCommand
    dim objRS as oleDB.oleDbDataReader
        objCommand = objConn.CreateCommand
        objCommand.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM TABLE"
        objCommand.Connection = oConn.objConn
        objRS = objCommand.ExecuteReader()
 
        While objRS.Read
    wend

I'm the only man on this world who uses VB.NET and ADO (not ADO.NET)
I know that ADO.NET can be useful if you need to work disconnected, but if you want to work on a little LAN or a single computer, you can also choose to keep ADO. I choosed ADO because I wanted to use pessimistich locking that ADO.NET doesn't offer. My suggestion: If you really need to use ADO.NET jump on it, but if you don't you can still work with ADO in the same way you did in VB6. Good job!

How exactly do I take advantage of ADO the old way? I am having trouble finding examples.

Thank you.

I think its as simple as setting a reference to MSADO**.DLL in your project, and then using it the same way.
