OLEDB: Demonstrates Storing and Retrieving OLE 2 Objects in a Database with 
Visual Basic® 3.0

The OLEDB sample application is a Microsoft® Visual Basic 3.0 program that 
demonstrates OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) version 2 functionality by 
manipulating data access objects. OLEDB allows you to add, delete, view, and 
edit OLE objects in a Microsoft Access® database. The database can contain 
Word documents, Microsoft Excel spreadsheets, wave files, bitmaps, text files, 
and so on.

OLEDB demonstrates the use of the Visual Basic GetChunk() and 
AppendChunk() methods to store and retrieve large amounts of data in a 
Microsoft Access binary field. The OLEDB.BAS file contains reusable Visual 
Basic routines for storing and retrieving OLE objects, files, or any other 
data.

OLEDB was built with Microsoft Visual Basic version 3.0.
