Some basic steps are required in order to be able to access and manipulate data using ADO :
- Create a connection object to connect to the database.
- Create a recordset object in order to receive data in.
- Open the connection
- Populate the recordset by opening it and passing the desired table name or SQL statement as a parameter to open function.
- Do all the desired searching/processing on the fetched data.
- Commit the changes you made to the data (if any) by using Update or UpdateBatch methods.
- Close the recordset

Famous quotes containing the words basic and/or usage:
“The gay world that flourished in the half-century between 1890 and the beginning of the Second World War, a highly visible, remarkably complex, and continually changing gay male world, took shape in New York City.... It is not supposed to have existed.”
—George Chauncey, U.S. educator, author. Gay New York: Gender, Urban Culture, and the Making of the Gay Male World, 1890-1940, p. 1, Basic Books (1994)
“...Often the accurate answer to a usage question begins, “It depends.” And what it depends on most often is where you are, who you are, who your listeners or readers are, and what your purpose in speaking or writing is.”
—Kenneth G. Wilson (b. 1923)
