SQL 2012 server Query:

Code:

$connection="System.Data.SqlClient|Integrated Security=SSPI;Data Source=.\SQL2012;Initial Catalog=Test1;"
$sql="SELECT * FROM table1;"
$totalRows=DataQuery($connection, $sql)
print($totalRows)

ODBC User DSN MyDSN1 Query :

$connection="System.Data.Odbc|DSN=MyDSN1;"
$sql="SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$];"
$totalRows=DataQuery($connection, $sql, 15)
print($totalRows)


ODBC excel 97/2003 Query:

$connection="System.Data.Odbc|Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)};DBQ=C:\Users\ptp\Desktop\Excel1.xls;"
$sql="SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$];"
$totalRows=DataQuery($connection, $sql, 15)
print($totalRows)


OLEDB excel 97/2003 Query:
Paging the results, using a query parameter @0 for $LastId

$connection="System.Data.OleDb|Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\Users\ptp\Desktop\Excel1.xls;Extended Properties='Excel 8.0;HDR=YES;';"
$sql="SELECT [Id],[Int1],[Date1],[Text1],[DateTime1] FROM [Sheet1$] WHERE [Id]>@0;"
$lastId=0
:loop

Print("Start Id=" + $LastId)
$totalRows=DataQuery($connection, $sql, 10, "$myData", $lastId)
Print("TotalRows=" + $TotalRows)

IF ($totalRows>0)
Print("Rx : Id | Int1 | Date1 | Text1 | DateTime1")
REPEAT ($rx, 0, $totalRows-1, 1)
Print($rx + " : " + $myData0[$rx] + " | " + $myData1[$rx] + " | " + $myData2[$rx] + " | " + $myData3[$rx] + " | " + $myData4[$rx])
ENDREPEAT
$lastId=$myData0[$totalRows-1]

print("LastId=" + $LastId)
Goto(loop)
ENDIF
