| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | OleDbParameter() | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class. |
![]() | OleDbParameter(String^, Object^) | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class that uses the parameter name and the value of the new OleDbParameter. |
![]() | OleDbParameter(String^, OleDbType) | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class that uses the parameter name and data type. |
![]() | OleDbParameter(String^, OleDbType, Int32) | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class that uses the parameter name, data type, and length. |
![]() | OleDbParameter(String^, OleDbType, Int32, ParameterDirection, Boolean, Byte, Byte, String^, DataRowVersion, Object^) | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class that uses the parameter name, data type, length, source column name, parameter direction, numeric precision, and other properties. |
![]() | OleDbParameter(String^, OleDbType, Int32, ParameterDirection, Byte, Byte, String^, DataRowVersion, Boolean, Object^) | Initializes a new instance of the OleDbParameter class that uses the parameter name, data type, length, source column name, parameter direction, numeric precision, and other properties. |

| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | DbType | Gets or sets the DbType of the parameter.(Overrides DbParameter::DbType.) |
![]() | Direction | Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the parameter is input-only, output-only, bidirectional, or a stored procedure return-value parameter.(Overrides DbParameter::Direction.) |
![]() | IsNullable | Gets or sets a value that indicates whether the parameter accepts null values.(Overrides DbParameter::IsNullable.) |
![]() | OleDbType | Gets or sets the OleDbType of the parameter. |
![]() | ParameterName | Gets or sets the name of the OleDbParameter.(Overrides DbParameter::ParameterName.) |
![]() | Precision | Gets or sets the maximum number of digits used to represent the Value property. |
![]() | Scale | Gets or sets the number of decimal places to which Value is resolved. |
![]() | Size | Gets or sets the maximum size, in bytes, of the data within the column.(Overrides DbParameter::Size.) |
![]() | SourceColumn | Gets or sets the name of the source column mapped to the DataSet and used for loading or returning the Value.(Overrides DbParameter::SourceColumn.) |
![]() | SourceColumnNullMapping | Sets or gets a value which indicates whether the source column is nullable. This allows DbCommandBuilder to correctly generate Update statements for nullable columns.(Overrides DbParameter::SourceColumnNullMapping.) |
![]() | SourceVersion | Gets or sets the DataRowVersion to use when you load Value.(Overrides DbParameter::SourceVersion.) |
![]() | Value | Gets or sets the value of the parameter.(Overrides DbParameter::Value.) |
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() | CreateObjRef(Type^) | Creates an object that contains all the relevant information required to generate a proxy used to communicate with a remote object.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | Equals(Object^) | Determines whether the specified object is equal to the current object.(Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetHashCode() | Serves as the default hash function. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetLifetimeService() | Retrieves the current lifetime service object that controls the lifetime policy for this instance.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | GetType() | |
![]() | InitializeLifetimeService() | Obtains a lifetime service object to control the lifetime policy for this instance.(Inherited from MarshalByRefObject.) |
![]() | ResetDbType() | Resets the type associated with this OleDbParameter.(Overrides DbParameter::ResetDbType().) |
![]() | ResetOleDbType() | Resets the type associated with this OleDbParameter. |
![]() | ToString() | Gets a string that contains the ParameterName.(Overrides Object::ToString().) |

![]() ![]() | IDbDataParameter::Precision | Indicates the precision of numeric parameters.(Inherited from DbParameter.) |
![]() ![]() | IDbDataParameter::Scale | For a description of this member, see IDbDataParameter::Scale.(Inherited from DbParameter.) |
The OLE DB.NET Framework Data Provider uses positional parameters that are marked with a question mark (?) instead of named parameters.
When querying an Oracle database using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle (MSDAORA) and the OLE DB.NET Framework Data Provider, using the LIKE clause to query values in fixed-length fields may not return all expected matches. The reason is that when Oracle matches values for fixed-length fields in a LIKE clause, it matches the entire length of the string, including any padding trailing spaces. For example, if a table in an Oracle database contains a field named "Field1" that is defined as char(3), and you enter the value "a" into a row of that table, the following code does not return the row.
This is because Oracle stores the column value as "a " (padding "a", with trailing spaces, to the fixed field length of 3), which Oracle does not treat as a match for the parameter value of "a" in the case of a LIKE comparison of fixed-length fields.
To resolve this problem, append a percentage ("%") wildcard character to the parameter value ("a%"), or use an SQL = comparison instead.
The following example creates multiple instances of OleDbParameter through the OleDbParameterCollection collection within the OleDbDataAdapter. These parameters are used to select data from the data source and place the data in the DataSet. This example assumes that a DataSet and an OleDbDataAdapter have already been created by using the appropriate schema, commands, and connection.
