MSADDL10: Demonstrates Microsoft Access Data Definition Language DLL
MSADDL10 is a data definition language (DDL) dynamic-link library
(DLL) that provides data definition support beyond that provided by
standard Microsoft Access®.
This DLL enables the Access Basic programmer to create and alter
tables, fields, indexes, and relationships, and then use those tables
in Microsoft Access and Access Basic. The DLL is provided specifically
as an aid to developers who need additional data definition
information not provided in the Microsoft Access retail documentation.
As with any DLL, passing an incorrect argument type or value could
result in general-protection fault (GPF) errors. If this happens,
check your arguments carefully. You can use the MSADDL10.BAS include
file to declare functions. This utility is not supported by Microsoft;
you should save your work frequently to avoid loss of data.
For function descriptions, please see MSADDL10.TXT. Table 1 lists the
functions provided by MSADDL10.DLL.
NOTE: You can use these functions only with Microsoft Access databases
and tables, and not with any other databases or tables.
MSADDL10 is one of several samples and tools that demonstrate what
other developers have done with Microsoft Access databases. These
tools have not been tested, although some of them have been around for
a while. The Microsoft Access tools are not supported by Microsoft
Product Support Services (PSS) or on CompuServe®; please use these
tools at your own risk.
MSADDL10 was built and tested under Microsoft Access version 1.0.
