Chapter 7. Storing and Retrieving Data with ActiveX Data Objects CE
In this chapter we've investigated ADOCE, which provides easy access to Pocket Access databases. When you use ADOCE, remember to keep the limitations in mind; test your application frequently as you built it.
The sample application's design is a good template for an ADOCE application, although you can implement some enhancements. First, you could implement allowing the CD form to track whether changes have been made and commit the record only when changes are made. Moreover, validation can be done on the year and price fields.
Another enhancement to the application would be to automatically populate the genre combobox to the artist's default genre when a new CD is created for the artist. Lastly, you could implement the Recordset.Delete function for deleting a CD.
