Q: How do I display all the table of an Access database?

A: Here is how to display all the table names in an Access database using ADO:


Function ADOOpenSchema()

Dim conPubsDB As ADODB.Connection
Dim rsSchema As ADODB.Recordset
Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
Set conPubsDB = New ADODB.Connection

Set cmd = New ADODB.Command
conPubsDB.Open "DSN=DART;USER=sa;PWD=;DATABASE=pubs", "", ""

Set cmd.ActiveConnection = conPubsDB
Set rsSchema = conPubsDB.OpenSchema(adSchemaTables)

Debug.Print "Record Count" & rsSchema.RecordCount

Do Until rsSchema.EOF

	Resposne.Write("Table name: " &_
		 rsSchema("TABLE_NAME") &_
		 vbCr & "Table type:" &_
		 rsSchema("TABLE_TYPE") &_
		 vbCr)

	rsSchema.MoveNext
Loop
 
End Function

Sep 15, 2005 - Building an Image Keyword System
Unlike text-based file formats image files aren't made up of words, which makes searching for an image file by keyword difficult. Instead of being able to simply open the file to see what it contains, we're stuck looking at the text around it and other metadata to determine the image's meaning. In this article, Ziran Sun shows you how to build a simple database-based image keyword system that allows you to associate keywords with images and use these keywords to make finding images easier.
