Step 1: Specify a Server Program (RDS Tutorial)

  • Article

In the most general case, use the RDS.DataSpace object CreateObject method to specify the default server program, RDSServer.DataFactory, or your own custom server program (business object). A server program is instantiated on the server, and a reference to the server program, or proxy, is returned.

This tutorial uses the default server program:

Sub RDSTutorial1()  
   Dim DS as New RDS.DataSpace  
   Dim DF as Object  
   Set DF = DS.("RDSServer.DataFactory", "https://yourServer")  
...

Important

Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, RDS server components are no longer included in the Windows operating system (see Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 Compatibility Cookbook for more detail). RDS client components will be removed in a future version of Windows. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature. Applications that use RDS should migrate to WCF Data Service.
