Owning Palette: Database VIs and Function

Installed With: Database Connectivity Toolkit

Creates a new table in the database identified by connection reference. The table and column information inputs describe the name of the table and the properties of each column in the table, respectively.

	primary key specifies the column that is going to be the primary key for the table. The default is –1, which means the table does have a primary key.
	connection reference specifies a reference to an ADO Connection object.
	table is the name of the table in the database to create.
	column information specifies an array of clusters that describe each column to be created. column name specifies the name of column in database. data type specifies the data type of the column. 0 String 1 Long (I32) 2 Single (SGL) 3 Double (DBL) 4 Date/Time 5 Binary size specifies the size of the column in the database. LabVIEW uses this parameter for string data types only. If you specify a size of 0, the database provider specifies the maximum string size. allow null? specifies if the column allows NULL values.
	error in describes error conditions that occur before this VI or function runs. The default is no error. If an error occurred before this VI or function runs, the VI or function passes the error in value to error out. This VI or function runs normally only if no error occurred before this VI or function runs. If an error occurs while this VI or function runs, it runs normally and sets its own error status in error out. Use the Simple Error Handler or General Error Handler VIs to display the description of the error code. Use exception control to treat what is normally an error as no error or to treat a warning as an error. Use error in and error out to check errors and to specify execution order by wiring error out from one node to error in of the next node. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI or function ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI or function ran. The default is FALSE. code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source specifies the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
	use file? if TRUE, specifies to use a user-supplied file to determine native database types.
	connection reference out returns a reference to an ADO Connection object.
	error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI or function ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI or function produces. Right-click the error out front panel indicator and select Explain Error from the shortcut menu for more information about the error. status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred. code is the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a nonzero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code. source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI or function that produced the error or warning.
