Accessing Server Automation from VB.NET

To access Server Automation from Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, follow these steps:

1. Within Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 open the Project/Add Reference... dialogue.
2. Select the COM tab.
3. Scroll down the list and select Scx V6 Automation Interface.
4. Click Ok to close the dialogue.
5. 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

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

   Svr = new ScxV6DBClient.ScxV6Server

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

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

   Svr.Disconnect()
