This example shows how to extract the bitmap photos in the Microsoft Access 97 Nwind.mdb database and save them to a file. In order to accomplish this task, the Access and OLE headers must be stripped from the field.

Because the definition of OLE object storage is not documented, the code below searches the object's OLE header for characters consistent with the start of the graphic. This method may not work in all circumstances.

Note  Adaptation of the code posted in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q175261/

How do I get the AutoNumber (or Identity) for a newly inserted record?

The AutoNumber field should always be available when a server-side cursor is used.

However, if a client-side cursor location is used, then the AutoNumber field is only returned immediately when an Access 2000 database is used with OLE DB Provider for Jet 4.0 driver (or with the Jet 4.0 ODBC driver).

#28
The following example demonstrates how to read an Excel sheet using ADO.

There are two problems: 1) The name of the sheets is localized, so instead of SqlStr = "SELECT * FROM [Hoja1$]" you will have to use the appropriate name for your version, e.g. SqlStr = "SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]" for the English version. 2) The Excel sheet maybe has not column names.

To solve these problems, the second example uses the OpenSchema method to retrieve the names of the sheets as if they were tables and uses ordinals instead of column names.
