- Hi all - I'm what you call a 'newbie' (and everybody said AAARRGGHH), so
- please excuse any unintended lack of social graces. In real life I'm an
- old old Unix C programmer who has recently been dragged kicking and
- screaming into the Windows environment, but unfortunately find myself
- lost when trying to use some of the ODBC related MFC classes.
-
- CDatabase and CREcordset are easy to understand and use, and no problems
- there - but when I need to implement some form of scrolling thru a
- database table on-screen, I run into practical problems with the stock
- textbook example of pre-filling a combo-box with all the possible
- choices (heck, there may be thousands), so I am obviously missing
- something!
-
- I'm not asking for a tutorial here, but if someone could point a helpful
- digit in the right direction - I'd be Vgrateful.
-
- Cheers
- Kim
