"Learn OLE DB Development with Visual C++ 6.0" presents the basics of the Component Object Model and OLE DB, and assists Visual C++ programmers in creating OLE DB providers and consumers. OLE DB is the ODBC-compliant standard from Microsoft that lets non-record-based data interact with its users via recordset semantics and powerful data controls like ADO and RDO. This book gives you all the basics needed to create your own OLE DB consumers and providers in Visual C++, using the ActiveX Template Library and the Microsoft Foundation Classes. Putting OLE DB components on the Internet is also covered. Nathan Wallace is a computer programmer and consultant in Denver, Colorado, who has been writing best-selling computer books since 1994.
