Command Object allows you to
manipulate database commands. Although you can execute a command string
on a Connection Object or as part of opening a Recordset Object, the
Command Object allows you more flexibility. Chief among its extended
functionalities is the ability to add, remove, and define query
parameters using the Command Object's Parameter Collection. You can
define the text of a database command, such as a SQL statement, using
the CommandText Property of the Command Object.
- ActionConnection - The name of the
Connection Object to which the Command Object belongs.
- CommandText - A string containing the
text of the command you wish to execute against the database. It can
be a query, a SQL statement, the name of a stored procedure, or some
other database manipulation command.
- CommandType - The type of command
that is executed using the Command Object
- adCmdText - The command is a text command, such as a
simple SQL statement; CommandText is evaluated as a textual
definition of a command.
- adCmdTable - The Command Object represents a table;
CommandText is evaluated the name of a table.
- adCmdStoredProc - The Command Object represents a
stored procedure; CommandText is evaluated as the name of a
stored procedure in the underlying data provider.
- adCmdUnknown - The Command Object type is unknown; this
the default value.
- Execute - Executes the command
contained in the Command Object's CommandText Property.
