DataLinks with ADO in FiveWin

FYI,

I wanted to utilize the Datalink Wizard to obtain a properly formatted ADO connection string below is how to do this.

Local oDataLink := CreateObject("Datalinks")
Local oConn := oDataLink:PromptNew()

I spend a long time trying to find this, I can't believe it was this easy...

Byron,

Thanks,

Hi Byron,

your code:

Local oDataLink := CreateObject("Datalinks") 
Local oConn := oDataLink:PromptNew()

is working for me, you can see the image

I just want to add, if you want to see the value of the connection string, just tack the following at the end of Byron's code:

msginfo(oConn:ConnectionString)

FWH 11.08/FWH 19.12

BCC5.82/BCC7.3

xHarbour/Harbour
