The Save Method

Back

The Save method saves a Recordset object to a file or a Stream object. When the save method is finished, the record pointer will point at the first record of the Recordset.

Note: If there is a filter applied to the Recordset, only the "filtered" records will be saved. 

Note: This method can only be called on an open Recordset.

Syntax

objRecordset.Save destination,persistformat

Parameter Description
destination Optional. Specifies where to save the Recordset object; the path name of a file or a reference to a Stream object
persistformat Optional. A PersistFormatEnum value that specifies the format of the Recordset (XML or ADTG). Default is adPersistADTG

Example

You can save a Recordset in XML format:

<%
set xmlDoc=CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
conn.Open "c:/webdata/northwind.mdb"
set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
rs.Open "Customers", conn
'Save the Recordset into a DOM tree
rs.Save xmldoc, 1
%>

adPersistADTG 0 Saves in a Microsoft Advanced Data TableGram (ADTG) format.
adPersistXML 1 Saves in Extensible Markup Language (XML) format
