如何使用adox将外键添加到访问表 [英] how to add foreign key to access table using adox

问题描述

我正在尝试创建一个包含两个表的数据库.我想在其中之一中添加外键. 但是以下代码无法正常工作，我对其进行了调试，发现唯一的问题是添加了外键.

I am trying to creat a database with two tables. i want to add in a foreign key in one of them. but the following code is not working, i debug it and i found that the only problem is in adding the foreign key.

private static bool creatDatabase()
    {
        bool result = false;

        Catalog cat = new Catalog();
        Table tableCustomer = new Table();
        Table tableAddresses = new Table();

        //Create the table Customer and it's fields. 
        tableCustomer.Name = "Customer";
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("Customer_ID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger);
        tableCustomer.Keys.Append("PrimaryKEy", KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "Customer_ID");
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("Name", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("Email", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("TelNumber", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 32);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("Fax", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 32);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("Street", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("PostalCode", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger, 10);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("City", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);
        tableCustomer.Columns.Append("AdressCounter", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adSmallInt);

        tableAddresses.Name = "Addresses";
        tableAddresses.Columns.Append("Address_ID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger);
        tableAddresses.Keys.Append("PrimaryKEy", KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "Address_ID");
        //tableAddresses.Columns.Append("Customer_ID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger);            
        //tableAddresses.Keys.Append("ForeignKey", KeyTypeEnum.adKeyForeign, "Customer_ID");  ---> here is the Exception
        tableAddresses.Columns.Append("Street", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);
        tableAddresses.Columns.Append("PostalCode", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger, 10);
        tableAddresses.Columns.Append("City", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adVarWChar, 50);

        try
        {
            cat.Create("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=" + Application.StartupPath + "\\Customers.mdb" + "; Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=5");
            cat.Tables.Append(tableCustomer);
            cat.Tables.Append(tableAddresses);

            //Now Close the database
            ADODB.Connection con = cat.ActiveConnection as ADODB.Connection;
            if (con != null)
                con.Close();


            result = true;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            result = false;
        }
        finally
        {
            if (!result)
            {
                ADODB.Connection con = cat.ActiveConnection as ADODB.Connection;
                if (con != null)
                    con.Close();
                File.Delete(Application.StartupPath + "\\Customers.accdb");
            }                  
        }
        cat = null;
        return result;
    }

如果我尝试以下方法(在上层方法中创建数据库后打开数据库)，则该方法也行不通:

if i try antoher approach like the following one(open the database after creating it in the upper methode), it does not work too:

private static bool addForeignKey()
    {
        bool retValue = true;

        ADODB.Connection con = new Connection();
        Key kyForeign = new Key();
        Catalog cat = new Catalog();


        kyForeign.Name = "test";
        kyForeign.Type = KeyTypeEnum.adKeyForeign;
        kyForeign.RelatedTable = "Customer";
        kyForeign.Columns.Append("CustomerID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger);
        kyForeign.Columns["CustomerID"].RelatedColumn = "Customer_ID";
        try
        {   
            con.Open("Provider='Microsoft.JET.OLEDB.4.0';Data source ='"
               + Application.StartupPath + "\\Customers.mdb';");
            cat.ActiveConnection = con;
            cat.Tables["Addresses"].Keys.Append(kyForeign, KeyTypeEnum.adKeyForeign, ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger); // here comes the Exception
        }
        catch
        {
            retValue = false;
        }
        finally
        {
            if(retValue)
            {
                if (con != null)
                    con.Close();
            }
        }
        return retValue;
    }

我没有通过代码示例找到有关adox api的良好文档，这就是为什么我不知道如何解决此问题的原因? 提前thnx

i dont find a good documentation for the adox api with code examples, thats why i dont know how to solve this? thnx in advance

推荐答案

问题是您没有填写RelatedTable和RelatedColumn参数.用以下代码替换第一段代码中的注释行:

The problem is that you don't fill the RelatedTable and RelatedColumn parameters. Replace the commented lines in your first piece of code with the following:

        tableAddresses.Columns.Append("Customer_ID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger); 
        tableAddresses.Keys.Append("ForeignKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyForeign, "Customer_ID", "Customer", "Customer_ID");
