Default Odbc Api
Hi All,

I'm currently learning how to do ODBC connections with the ODBC API in Visual C++ 6.0


Is there another/a nicer way to use the ODBC API from one Visual Studio Express editions (i.e. VB 2005)? Specifically, I'm trying to determine primary/foreign keys in a table in a database that I'm connected to through ODBC, and I have not found a way to do it using the System.Data.Odbc objects, but the API has functions for this.

Thanks!

A good place to start looking would be in the ODBC Reference on MSDN.

ODBC Programmer's Reference (Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC))

That's exactly what I have been using, mostly the ODBC API Reference.


I'm wondering if there is a way to open up it's functionality from .NET, System.Data.ODBC doesn't seem to have everything I want.

Okay...

I seem to be able to extract Primary Key info from a table with

OdbcDataAdapter.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey

Then checking the Primary Key on the table after using Fill.


Any idea about Foreign Keys?
