1.
|
To set up the ADO-USoft
environment make sure you: |
·
|
Have installed both the Microsoft Data Access Components 1.5
and the USoft Remote Rules Service API 7.0. |
·
|
Can run the developed USoft application as a normal application
(via usd.exe from a USoft Binder project). |
·
|
Have an application development environment that allows you to
use ADO, for instance, MS Visual Basic 5. |
2.
|
In the Control Panel, configure a new ODBC data source based on
the "USoft Remote Rules Service API 7.0" ODBC driver. Enter
appropriate values in the Data Source Name, Application Name, RDBMS
and Server/Database fields. See "How to Complete the ODBC
Configuration Dialog" for more information. |
3.
|
Create a new application using your application development
environment. For instance, in Visual Basic 5, define a new project
and enable the ADO 1.5 ActiveX component (activate
Project/References.../Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 1.5 Library).
This will import the msado15.dll. |
4.
|
Develop the application, connecting to the USoft application by
using SQL statements in ODBC syntax in the ADO script
elements. |
