ADO Name Property
Definition and Usage
The Name property can be set or return a string that contains the name of the Command, Property, Field, or Parameter object.
| Object | Description of the Name property |
|---|---|
| Command | The Name property has read/write access to the Command object. |
| Property | The Name property has read-only access to the Property attributes. |
| Field | The Name property has read/write access when used to create a Recordset, but it is read-only when opening an existing Recordset. |
| Parameter | For Parameter objects that have not been appended to the Parameters collection, the Name property is read/write. For appended Parameter objects and all other objects, the Name property is read-only. Names in the collection do not have to be unique. |
