Bookmark Property

Applies To

Description

Determines the current record of a recordset. Not available at design time and read/write at run time.

Usage

row_bookmark = oradynaset.Bookmark

oradynaset.Bookmark = row_bookmark

Remarks

The first form returns a bookmark for the current row. The second form repositions the bookmark to refer to a specific record within the dynaset.

Bookmarks exist only for the life of the dynaset and are specific to a particular dynaset (they cannot be shared among dynasets). (Note, however, that bookmarks of a dynaset and its clone are interchangeable.)

Before attempting to use bookmarks, check the Bookmarkable property of that dynaset to see if it supports bookmarks.

Data Type

The value is a string of binary data, but can be stored in a variable of String or Variant data type. The length of the string cannot be predicted, so do not use a fixed-length string.
