Api.RetrieveColumnSize method (JET_SESID, JET_TABLEID, JET_COLUMNID, Int32, RetrieveColumnGrbit)

Retrieves the size of a single column value from the current record. The record is that record associated with the index entry at the current position of the cursor. Alternatively, this function can retrieve a column from a record being created in the cursor copy buffer. This function can also retrieve column data from an index entry that references the current record.

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Shared Function RetrieveColumnSize ( _
    sesid As JET_SESID, _
    tableid As JET_TABLEID, _
    columnid As JET_COLUMNID, _
    itagSequence As Integer, _
    grbit As RetrieveColumnGrbit _
) As Nullable(Of Integer)
'Usage
Dim sesid As JET_SESID
Dim tableid As JET_TABLEID
Dim columnid As JET_COLUMNID
Dim itagSequence As Integer
Dim grbit As RetrieveColumnGrbit
Dim returnValue As Nullable(Of Integer)

returnValue = Api.RetrieveColumnSize(sesid, _
    tableid, columnid, itagSequence, _
    grbit)
public static Nullable<int> RetrieveColumnSize(
    JET_SESID sesid,
    JET_TABLEID tableid,
    JET_COLUMNID columnid,
    int itagSequence,
    RetrieveColumnGrbit grbit
)

Parameters

  • itagSequence
    Type: System.Int32

    The sequence number of value in a multi-valued column. The array of values is one-based. The first value is sequence 1, not 0. If the record column has only one value then 1 should be passed as the itagSequence.

Return value

Type: System.Nullable<Int32>
The size of the column. 0 if the column is null.
