PRB: MSFlexGrid Does Not Return All Rows with UseODBC Data Control

MORE INFORMATION

The DefaultType property of the Data control is new to Visual Basic 5.0. It determines what type of data source (Jet or ODBCDirect) to use when creating a Recordset.

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

1. Start Visual Basic and create a Standard EXE. Form1 is added by default.
2. Bring up the Components dialog window by selecting the menu item Project/Components. Select "Microsoft FlexGrid Control 5.0" and click OK.
3. Add a MSFlexGrid control (MSFlexGrid1) and a Data control (Data1) to Form1.
4. Set the DefaultType property of Data1 to UseODBC.
5. Set the DataSource property of MSFlexGrid1 to Data1.
6. Add the following lines of code to the Load event of Form1:
   
   Note You must change Username=<username> and PWD=<strong password> to the correct values before you run this code. Make sure that Username has the appropriate permissions to perform this operation on the database.

         'Replace MY_SERVER with an appropriate SQL pubs database DSN.
         Data1.Connect = "ODBC;DSN=MY_SERVER;Username=<username>;PWD=<strong password>;"
         Data1.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM TITLES"
         Data1.Refresh
   
         'Number of rows in the Recordset.
         MsgBox Data1.Recordset.RecordCount
   
         'Number of rows in MSFlexGrid1 excluding the title row.
         MsgBox MSFlexGrid1.Rows - 1
