1. Adding, Updating, and Deleting Records from a Recordset

2. AddNew Method (ADO) Creates a new record in the edit buffer. The data are not actually written to the underlying database table until you call the Update method. Syntax: recordset.AddNew

3. Update Method (ADO) Saves any changes you make to the current record of a recordset object. The Update method must be called after the AddNew method. Syntax: recordset.Update

4. CancelUpdate Method (ADO) If you are editing a record, the CancelUpdate method will restore the contents of the current record to the values that existed before editing began. Syntax: recordset.CancelUpdate

5. Delete Method (ADO) Removes the current record from the recordset. Typically, the MoveNext method is called so that a current record will exist. Syntax: recordset.Delete

7. Recordset EditMode Property Indicates the editing status of the current record. Returns one of the following values: –adEditNone –adEditInProgress –adEditAdd –adEditDelete Example: If rstCurrent.EditMode = adEditAdd Then cboMemberID.AddItem cboMemberID.Text, rstCurrent.AbsolutePosition – 1 End If
