Accessing Server Automation from VB6

To access Server Automation from Microsoft Visual Basic 6, follow these steps:

  1. Within Microsoft Visual Basic open the Projects/References... dialogue.
  2. Scroll down the list and select Scx V6 Automation Interface.
  3. Click Ok to close the dialogue.
  4. In your program declare variables that represent the database connection and any objects in the database you need, for example:

    Dim Svr As ScxV6DBClient.ScxV6Server

    Dim Obj As ScxV6DBClient.ScxV6Object

  5. Create the server object and connect it to a server, for example:

    Set Svr = new ScxV6DBClient.ScxV6Server

    Svr.Connect "MAIN", "UserName", "Password"

  6. When your program has finished working with the database, use the Disconnect method to disconnect from the server:

    Svr.Disconnect
