Getting data across platforms and formats is a cornerstone of present-day applications development. ADO: ActiveX Data Objects is both an introduction and a complete reference to ADO (ActiveX Data Objects), Microsoft's universal data access solution. You'll learn how to easily access data in multiple formats--such as email messages, Access databases, Word documents, and SQL databases--even on different platforms, without spending extra time learning every last detail about each format. Author Jason Roff shows by example how to use ADO with your programming language of choice to save programming time, so you can concentrate on the content and quality of your application rather than the nitty-gritty of specific data formats. ADO: ActiveX Data Objects includes: Chapters dedicated to the Connection, Recordset, Field, and Command objects and the Properties collectionA complete, detailed reference listing every ADO object, method, property, and event, in convenient alphabetical orderChapters on ADO architecture, data shaping, the ADO Event ModelAn appendix containing enumeration tables used by ADO objects and collections, listed alphabeticallyBrief introductions to RDS, ADO.NET, and SQLADO: ActiveX Data Objects is a versatile one-stop guide to both the theory and practice of programming with ADO through Version 2.6. The thorough reference section and topic-specific chapters will help you find quick answers about the details of objects, collections, methods, and properties of ADO. And the abundance of practical code examples will give you a good grasp of how to use ADO's strong points most effectively. Read more

Microsoft is continuously developing new features based on feedback by Excel Power-User beta testers, data analysts, and Excel aficionados. Regardless of these new features, those who get the most out of the data analysis features in Excel are those who understand the investigative process: creating new ways of looking at the data through asking the right questions.Excel pivot tables have many features that allow you to cut and slice data on the fly. After initializing and loading the data into pivot tables, it is a straightforward process to create interactive drag-and-drop analyst dashboards. Excel for the web even makes it possible to publish dynamic dashboards online for your clients.

Java Beans is the most important new development in Java this year. Beans is the next generation of Java technology that not only adds features the language lacked, but also lets Java programs interoperate with a number of development environments. The initial release includes a bridge for Microsoft's ActiveX/COM; future releases will include bridges for Netscape's LiveConnect and IBM's OpenDoc. Since it's a "component architecture" for Java, Beans can be used in graphical programming environments, like Borland's JBuilder, or IBM's VisualAge for Java. This means that someone can use a graphical tool to connect a lot of Beans together and make an application, without actually writing any Java code -- in fact, without doing any programming at all. Graphical development environments let you configure components by specifying aspects of their visual appearance (like the color or label of a button) in addition to the interactions between components (what happens when you click on a button or select a menu item). One important aspect of Java Beans is that components don't have to be visible. This sounds like a minor distinction, but it's very important: the invisible parts of an application are the parts that do the work. So, for example, in addition to manipulating graphical widgets, like checkboxes and menus, Beans allows you to develop and manipulate components that do database access, perform computations, and so on. You can build entire applications by connecting pre-built components, without writing any code. Developing Java Beans is for people who need to stay up-to-date with the latest developments in programming technology. Minimally, developing Beans means adopting several simple design patterns in your code. However, that's only the beginning. To take full advantage of the Java Beans architecture, you should understand how to write classes that are serializable, use events for communication between classes, know when and how to provide BeanInfo classes that give graphical environments more information about your components, and provide property editors and customizers that let graphical tools work with more complex Beans. The book covers: Events, event listeners, and adaptersProperties, indexed properties, bound properties, constrained properties, and vetoable property changes Persistence, serialization, versioning, and object validationPackaging Beans using JAR filesThe BeanBox, a prototypical development toolReflection and introspectionProperty editors and customizersThe ActiveX bridge; using Java Beans in Visual Basic programs Read more

This book will quickly show users how to use the SumIf, CountIf and GetPivotData formulas in their Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. It’s also important that all users realize or understand that no two people use or write formulas in the same way. When an individual has used formulas for many years, he or she becomes a master of those particular formulas, i.e., there are users who will nestle formulas with other formulas in order to filter for the results that they need or want, because there has never been only one way to use or write a Microsoft Excel formula. This book is a continuation of my “Microsoft Excel Data Formulas to Extract, Pull or Look for Content in Spreadsheets” book that explains how to use the Left, Right, Mid, Trim, Len, Find, Index, If, And, Or, Iserror, Hlookup, Vlookup, Concatenate, Offset, Match, Small and Large formulas in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. This book also seeks to introduce users to form controls and VBA, i.e., this book is a hybrid; it will cover one VBA While…Wend loop statement, an ActiveX form control button and a few formulas used in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets; however, users should not look for this book to cover all aspects of the three topics, because I’ve already published four separate eBooks to cover each individual topic or subject matter in detail; those eBooks are 1) Option Button, Check Box, Combo Box, List Box, and Spin Button (Spreadsheet Form Controls, 2) Microsoft Excel VBA Codes Are Fun, Simple, and Easy to Learn In One Hour or Less: VBA for Students, Parents, and Professionals (First Edition), 3) Microsoft VBA Loop Statements for Word and Excel Includes Do...Until, While...Wend and For...Next Statement and 4) Data Formulas to Extract, Pull or Look for Content in Spreadsheets. This eBook serves only to give users a very small sample of what is possible using formulas, form controls and/or VBA. If a user likes what he or she sees, reads or learns in this small eBook, the user may want to look for one of my eBooks that relates to one specific topic or subject matter covered in this hybrid, sample eBook.
