Quick Look: OLE DB Consumer Templates, A Programmer's Guide
If you program with OLE DB this is a great reference.
OLE DB is one of the main data access technologies available to programmers
today. If you use OLE DB you have undoubtedly noticed a lack of resource
material to support your efforts. Peirre Nallet's book comes to your rescue.
The book contains numerous examples that demonstrate the use of OLE DB
consumer templates and extensions. He covers the development of such fundamental
database elements as sessions, tables, data exchange, BLOBs, transactions,
indexes, scheme, and OLAP. Pierre has structured the book in an easy to
follow format which makes finding specific topics quick. He has even included
an overview of Windows DNA, COM and Universal Database Access for readers
who are less knowledgeable of the Windows development world.

reference

I was disappointed that the book did not contain a CD-ROM with code samples;
this would make using them in your own projects much easier. All in all
I feel this book is an excellent addition to any database developer's
library.
