How to query an access database by QTP

Simple QTP Script/code example of how to query an access database.

This is my tutorial on how to build a query that you can use in VBScript to extract information from a database.
The level of difficulty for this tutorial is beginner to intermediate.

You need to know basic VBScript syntax and need to have a copy of MS Access.

Code Starts from here:

dim objDB
dim objRS
dim intCounter

' create a database and recordset objects
Set objDB = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set objRS = CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")

' configure the connection
objDB.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
objDB.Open "c:\MyTestDatabase.mdb"

' count the number of records in the employee table
objRS.Open "SELECT COUNT(*) from Employee" , objDB

Msgbox "There are " & objRS.Fields(0).Value & " records in the employee table."

' destroy the objects
Set objDB = Nothing
Set objRS = Nothing
