         Option Explicit
         Dim cn As New rdoConnection
         Dim rs As rdoResultset
         Dim SQL As String
   
         Private Sub Command1_Click()
            rs.edit
         End Sub
   
         Private Sub Command2_Click()
           rs(1) = Text2.Text
           rs.Update
         End Sub
   
         Private Sub Command3_Click()
           rs.Close
           Set rs = Nothing
           cn.Close
           Set cn = Nothing
           Unload Me
         End Sub
   
         Private Sub Command4_Click()
   
            rs.MoveNext
            If Not (rs.EOF) Then
              Text1.Text = rs(0)
              Text2.Text = rs(1)
            Else
              rs.MoveLast
          End If
        End Sub
   
         Private Sub Command5_Click()
           rs.MovePrevious
           If Not (rs.BOF) Then
              Text1.Text = rs(0)
              Text2.Text = rs(1)
           Else
              rs.MoveFirst
           End If
         End Sub
   
         Private Sub Form_Load()
           '
           ' Using a DSN-less connection to open a free table
           '
           cn.Connect = "SourceType=DBF;" _
               & "SourceDB=C:\Vfp\Samples\Data;" _
               & "Driver={Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver}"
   
           cn.CursorDriver = rdUseOdbc
           cn.EstablishConnection "rdDriverNoPrompt"
   
           SQL = "select * from customer"   'this should be a free table
           Set rs = cn.OpenResultset(SQL, rdOpenKeyset, rdConcurRowVer)
   
           rs.MoveFirst
           Text1.Text = rs(0)
           Text2.Text = rs(1)
         End Sub
   
   						

4. Press the F5 key to run the form. Make changes by editing text box 2, pressing edit, and then updating. Verify that changes have been made to the table by running the form several times.
