2.2.8.3 OLE DB Connections

  • Article

An OLE DB connection is a connection to an OLE DB data provider. An external connection is an OLE DB connection if the idbtype field of the BrtBeginExtConnection (section 2.4.80) record is DBTOLEDB (section 2.5.31). Properties of an OLE DB connection are specified by a BrtBeginECDbProps (section 2.4.61) record that MUST follow the BrtBeginExtConnection (section 2.4.80) record. For more information about OLE DB, see [MSDN-OLEDBP-OI].
