- Thanks for checking out this Query Def Utility for Access
- Databases. In an attempt to optimize my database searches,
- I looked for an easy way to create and edit Query Defs. I didn't
- find any so I wrote this little utility. In many cases,
- pre-compiling a Query Def into an Access MDB file will increase
- the speed of database searches. The BIBLIO.MDB file included
- with VB3 PRO uses several Query Defs and with the use of this
- program, you can view how they were set up.
-
- Installation
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- Only the program file and the vbx for the custom control are
- included to save space and modem time. You will need some VB3
- PRO files to enable the utility. Specifically, you need the
- CMDIALOG.VBX, THREED.VBX, MSAES110.DLL, MSAJT110.DLL,
- VBDB300.DLL, and VBRUN300.DLL in your C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM
- subdirectory. Query Defs can only be used with VB3 PRO.
- If you don't have it, it is worthwhile. To complete the
- installation, create a directory if you wish, and place in it
- the QueryDef.EXE file. Place the SSFORMFX.VBX in your
- C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM subdirectory. You can then create an icon
- in your VB Applications group and your off and running.
-
- Use
- ------------------------------------------------------------------
- This utility makes it painless to add, edit, view and delete
- compliled Query Defs within Access MDB files. Click Open Database
- and select an MDB file and click OK. If any Query Defs have been
- compiled into the MDB, you'll see a list of their names. To see
- the accompanying SQL statement, double-click on the Query Def in
- the list. Thats all there is to it. In your application code,
- access the query def by setting the recordsource property of a
- data control to the query def title, and the database name to
- the MDB file. (Data1.RecordSource="Query Def Title")
- or Set DS=DB.CreateDynaset("Query Def Title")
- or Set SS=DB.CreateShapShot("Query Def Title") once you have
- defined the DB.
