Loading an ADO Recordset into a DataSet[ Team LiB ]Recipe 5.9 Loading an ADO Recordset into a DataSetProblemYou want to convert an ADO Recordset generated within a legacy application to aDataSet so that you can use it in a .NET application.SolutionUse COM interop or the Fill( ) method of the OLE DB data provider DataAdapter.Youll need a reference to the Primary Interop Assembly (PIA) for ADO provided in thefile ADODB.DLL. Select adodb from the .NET tab in Visual Studio .NETs AddReference Dialog.The sample code creates an ADO Recordset for the Orders table in Northwind. The Fill( )method of the OleDbDataAdapter is used to load the Recordset into a DataTable.The C# code is shown in Example 5-9.Example 5-9. File: AdoRecordsetForm.cs// Namespaces, variables, and constantsusing System;using System.Data;using System.Data.OleDb;// . . .// Open an ADO connection.ADODB.Connection conn = new ADODB.Connection( );conn.Open(Provider = SQLOLEDB;Data Source = (local); + Initial Catalog = northwind,sa,,0);// Create an ADO recordset.ADODB.Recordset rs = new ADODB.Recordset( );rs.Open(SELECT * FROM Orders, conn, ADODB.CursorTypeEnum.adOpenForwardOnly, ADODB.LockTypeEnum.adLockReadOnly, 0);// Create and fill a dt from the ADO recordset.DataTable dt = new DataTable(Orders);(new OleDbDataAdapter( )).Fill(dt, rs);conn.Close( );// Bind the default view of the dt to the grid.dataGrid.DataSource = dt.DefaultView;DiscussionOne of the overloads of the OLE DB .NET DataAdapter.Fill( ) method accepts an ADORecordset or Record object. The COM component that returns an ADO Recordset orRecord object is consumed using COM interop.While the data can be loaded into a DataSet in this way, there is no way to reconcile thechanges made to the data in the DataSet with the data source underlying the ADO object.This must be explicitly handled.There is no FillSchema( ) method which allows the schema of an ADO Recordset to beretrieved into a DataSet.[ Team LiB ]
