Microsoft OLE DB 2.0 Programmers Reference and Data Access SDK (Microsoft Professional Editions)
| OLE DB Programmer's Reference |
Property group: Initialization
Property set: DBPROPSET_DBINIT
Type: VT_I2
Typical R/W: R/W
Description: Prompt
Indicates whether to prompt the user during initialization. One of the following values:
- DBPROMPT_PROMPT—Always prompt the user for initialization information.
- DBPROMPT_COMPLETE—Prompt the user only if more information is needed.
- DBPROMPT_COMPLETEREQUIRED—Prompt the user only if more information is needed. Do not allow the user to enter optional information.
- DBPROMPT_NOPROMPT—Do not prompt the user.
Information obtained from the user during prompting is available following initialization by calling GetProperties for the appropriate initialization properties.
Providers that do not wish to build their own prompting user interface can use IDBPromptInitialize::PromptDataSource, passing in their own data source object as the value of the ppDataSource argument. Such providers are still required to support DBPROP_INIT_PROMPT but can leverage the user interface provided by OLE DB services.
