Creating Query Helper Objects
Note
Indexing Service is no longer supported as of Windows XP and is unavailable for use as of Windows 8. Instead, use Windows Search for client side search and Microsoft Search Server Express for server side search.
The Query Helper API provides the Query and Utility objects for creating and managing queries to the OLE DB Provider for Indexing Service. An application can use these objects along with an ADO Recordset object (see Creating ADO Objects) that represents the resulting records from a query.
The following table shows how to declare a Query object with either early or late binding.
| Object | Early Binding | Late Binding |
|---|---|---|
| Query |
Dim objQuery as IXSSO.QueryOr Reference to Cisso Type Library |
Dim objQuery as Object |
You subsequently can use either of the following statements to create the Query object.
Set objQuery = New IXSSO.Query
Set objQuery = CreateObject("IXSSO.Query")
The following table shows how to declare a Utility object with either early or late binding.
| Object | Early Binding | Late Binding |
|---|---|---|
| Utility |
Dim objUtility as IXSSO.UtilOr Reference to Cisso Type Library |
Dim objUtility as Object |
You subsequently can use either of the following statements to create the Utility object.
Set objUtility = New IXSSO.Util
Set objUtility = CreateObject("IXSSO.Util")
