System.Data.OleDb Namespace

Sets or retrieves the OleDbType of the parameter.

The property is read/write with a default value of VarWChar.

Use the OleDbType property to specify or determine the OleDbType data type of a given parameter.

OleDbType and DbType are linked. Setting the OleDbType changes the DbType to a supported OleDbType enum value.

The following example initializes an OleDbParameter and sets some of its properties.

public void CreateOleDbParameter ( ) {
   OleDbParameter myParam = new OleDbParameter ( "Description", OleDbType.VarChar, 100 );
   myParam.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
}

Public Sub CreateOleDbParameter ( )
   Dim myParam As New OleDbParameter ( "Description", OleDbType.VarChar, 100 )
   myParam.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
End Sub
