CDaoDatabase::Create

To create a new Microsoft Jet (.MDB) database, call this member function after you construct a CDaoDatabase object.

virtual void Create( 
   LPCTSTR lpszName, 
   LPCTSTR lpszLocale = dbLangGeneral, 
   int dwOptions = 0  
);

Parameters

  • lpszName
    A string expression that is the name of the database file that you are creating. It can be the full path and filename, such as "C:\\MYDB.MDB". You must supply a name. If you do not supply a filename extension, .MDB is appended. If your network supports the uniform naming convention (UNC), you can also specify a network path, such as "\\\\MYSERVER\\MYSHARE\\MYDIR\\MYDB". Only Microsoft Jet (.MDB) database files can be created using this member function. (Double backslashes are required in string literals because "\" is the C++ escape character.)

  • lpszLocale
    A string expression used to specify collating order for creating the database. The default value is dbLangGeneral. Possible values are:

    • dbLangGeneral   English, German, French, Portuguese, Italian, and Modern Spanish

    • dbLangArabic   Arabic

    • dbLangCyrillic   Russian

    • dbLangCzech   Czech

    • dbLangDutch   Dutch

    • dbLangGreek   Greek

    • dbLangHebrew   Hebrew

    • dbLangHungarian   Hungarian

    • dbLangIcelandic   Icelandic

    • dbLangNordic   Nordic languages (Microsoft Jet database engine version 1.0 only)

    • dbLangNorwdan   Norwegian and Danish

    • dbLangPolish   Polish

    • dbLangSpanish   Traditional Spanish

    • dbLangSwedfin   Swedish and Finnish

    • dbLangTurkish   Turkish

  • dwOptions
    An integer that indicates one or more options. Possible values are:

    • dbEncrypt   Create an encrypted database.

    • dbVersion10   Create a database with Microsoft Jet database version 1.0.

    • dbVersion11   Create a database with Microsoft Jet database version 1.1.

    • dbVersion20   Create a database with Microsoft Jet database version 2.0.

    • dbVersion30   Create a database with Microsoft Jet database version 3.0.

    If you omit the encryption constant, an unencrypted database is created. You can specify only one version constant. If you omit a version constant, a database that uses the Microsoft Jet database version 3.0 is created.

    警告

    If a database is not encrypted, it is possible, even if you implement user/password security, to directly read the binary disk file that constitutes the database.

Remarks

Create creates the database file and the underlying DAO database object and initializes the C++ object. The object is appended to the associated workspace's Databases collection. The database object is in an open state; do not call Open after Create.

备注

With Create, you can create only Microsoft Jet (.MDB) databases. You cannot create ISAM databases or ODBC databases.
