Opening an External Table
Sometimes you will want to open, rather than link to, an external table. Linking provides ease of use when you are dealing with external tables. After you link to a table, you treat it just like any other Access table. The disadvantage of linking is that it uses ODBC. ODBC is not the most efficient means of interacting with a database for which you have a native OLE DB provider. Therefore, you might want to programmatically open an external table without creating a link to it. Opening an external table is a two-step process: 1. Establish a connection to the external data source. 2. Point a Recordset object at the result of executing a SQL statement against the Connection object.Providing Connection Information
The connection information you provide when you open an external table is similar to the information you provide when you link to the table. The connection information is provided as the ConnectionString argument of the Open method of the Connection object.Understanding Windows Registry Settings
Each ISAM driver has a separate key in the Windows Registry. These keys are located in the appropriate ISAM driver in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Jet\ 4.0\ISAM Formats section of the Registry. These keys are used to configure the driver after initialization. As you can see in Figure 20.9, the setup program has created keys for several data sources. If you look at a specific data source (in this case, dBASE III), you can see all the settings that exist for the dBASE driver. The IndexFilter is set to dBASE Index(*.ndx), for example. At times, you will need to modify one of the Registry settings to customize the behavior of the ISAM driver; this is covered later in this chapter in the section "Looking at Special Considerations."This material orginally appeared in Alison Balter's book Mastering Microsoft Office Access 2007 Development.
