SubmitChanges Method Example (VBScript)

Important

Beginning with Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, RDS server components are no longer included in the Windows operating system (see Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 Compatibility Cookbook for more detail). RDS client components will be removed in a future version of Windows. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature. Applications that use RDS should migrate to WCF Data Service.

The following code fragment shows how to use the SubmitChanges method with an RDS.DataControl object.

To test this example, cut and paste this code into a normal ASP document and name it SubmitChangesCtrlVBS.asp. ASP script will identify your server.
