Need OLEDB Connect String Example for Sybase

[Guest]

I need to use OLEDB Provider to access Sybase. I am having problems with the
ASE provider and prefer OLEDB.

Question: What do I need to implement that? Any clients to install?

A working example would be appreciated.

Mori,

I know two good pages with connection string information.

http://www.connectionstrings.com/

I hope this helps a little bit?

Kerry, I'm sorry but your code didn't work.
Here's the error message:

Message: No value given for one or more required parameters.
System.Data.Oledb.OLEdbException

at system.data.common.dbdataadapter.fill(datatable datatable)
line 404

dAdapter.Fill(dTable)


Here's the code I adapted from you:

Dim cnstring As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=|DataDirectory|\HasbaraSample.mdb;Persist Security Info=True"
Dim cn As New OleDbConnection(cnstring)
Dim cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand
Dim dAdapter As New OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
Dim dTable As New DataTable

cmd.CommandText = "Select LastName + ', ' + FirstName As
AuthorName, ID From Authors2 Order By AuthorName"
cnAC.Open()
cmd.Connection = cn
dAdapter.SelectCommand = cmd
Me.lstAuthors.DisplayMember = "AuthorName"
lstAuthors.ValueMember = "ID"
lstAuthors.DataSource = dTable
dAdapter.Fill(dTable)

cn.Close()

If the lstAuthors statements are placed after the cn.close, I get the same
error.
