SqlCeRemoteDataAccess.Pull Method (String, String, String)

Note: This namespace, class, or member is supported only in version 1.1 of the .NET Framework.

Extracts data from a SQL Server database and stores it in a table in a SQL Server CE database.

  [Visual Basic]
  Overloads Public Sub Pull( _
   ByVal 
  localTableName
   As String, _
   ByVal sqlSelectString As String, _
   ByVal oledbConnectionString As String _
)
[C#]
public void Pull(string localTableName,string sqlSelectString,string oledbConnectionString
);
[C++]
public: void Pull(String* localTableName,String* sqlSelectString,String* oledbConnectionString
);
[JScript]
public function Pull(
   localTableName : String,
 sqlSelectString : String,
 oledbConnectionString : String);

Parameters

• localTableName
  The name of the SQL Server CE table that will receive the extracted SQL Server records. An error occurs if the table already exists.
• sqlSelectString
  Any valid Transact-SQL statement, including SELECT statements and stored procedures, that specifies which table, columns, and records to extract from the SQL Server database for storing in the SQL Server CE database.
• oledbConnectionString
  The OLE DB connection string used when connecting to the SQL Server database.

Remarks

The InternetLogin and InternetPassword properties must be specified if the virtual directory that contains the SQL Server CE Server Agent is configured to use Basic authentication or Integrated Windows authentication. sqlSelectString controls which data is pulled from the SQL Server table. An error occurs if the resulting recordset contains an unsupported data type, such as timestamp. sqlSelectString can specify a WHERE clause to control which records are returned. For example, SELECT * FROM Customers WHERE

State='CA' would retrieve customers who live in California only. sqlSelectString also supports row-returning stored procedures or views.

If SQL Server Authentication is used, the user ID specified in OLEDBConnectionString must have the authority to read the SQL Server table.

If Windows Authentication is used by setting INTEGRATED SECURITY="SSPI" in OLEDBConnectionString, the Internet user must have the authority to read the SQL Server table. The following identifies the Internet user based on the authentication method:

• When Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) virtual directory is configured to use Anonymous access, the Internet user runs under the identity of the Internet Guest Account (IUSR computername). If you configure another Windows user account as the Internet Guest Account, the Internet user runs under the identity of that account.
• When IIS virtual directory is configured to use Basic authentication, the Internet user runs under the identity of the Windows user account for which the client supplied the Internet user name and password.
• When IIS virtual directory is configured to use Integrated Windows authentication, the Internet user runs under the identity of the Windows user account for which the client supplied the Internet user name and password.

For more information about data access and limitations, see "Supported Data Types and Data Type Mappings" and "RDA Limitations" in the SQL Server CE Books Online.

Example

  [Visual Basic] 
' Connection String to the SQL Server.
Dim rdaOleDbConnectString As String = _
    "Provider=sqloledb; Data Source=MySqlServer;Initial Catalog=Northwind; " + _
    "User Id=username;Password = <password>"

' Initialize RDA Object.
Dim rda As SqlCeRemoteDataAccess = Nothing

Try
    'Try the Pull Operation.
    rda = New SqlCeRemoteDataAccess()
   
    rda.InternetLogin         = "MyLogin"
    rda.InternetPassword      = "<password>"
    rda.InternetUrl           = "<http://www.northwindtraders.com/sqlce/sscesa20.dll>"
    rda.LocalConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.OLEDB.CE.2.0;Data Source=\ssce.sdf"
   
    rda.Pull("Employees", "Select * from Employees", _
       rdaOleDbConnectString, _
       RdaTrackOption.TrackingOnWithIndexes, _
       "ErrorTable")

Catch e As SqlCeException
'Use you own Error Handling Routine.
'ShowErrors(e);
Finally
   'Dispose of the RDA Object.
   rda.Dispose()
End Try

                "ErrorTable");
        }
        catch(SqlCeException) {
            //Use you own Error Handling Routine.
        }
        finally {
            //Dispose of the RDA Object.
            rda.Dispose();
