CancelBatch Method

Cancels a pending batch update.

Syntax

recordset.CancelBatch AffectRecords

The CancelBatch method syntax has these parts:

Remarks

Use the CancelBatch method to cancel any pending updates in a recordset in batch update mode. If the recordset is in immediate update mode, calling CancelBatch generates an error.

If you are editing the current record or are adding a new record when you call CancelBatch, ADO first calls the CancelUpdate method to cancel any cached changes; after that, all pending changes in the recordset are canceled.

It's possible that the current record will be indeterminable after a CancelBatch call, especially if you were in the process of adding a new record. For this reason, it is prudent to set the current record position to a known location in the recordset after the CancelBatch call. For example, call the MoveFirst method.

If the attempt to cancel the pending updates fails because of a conflict with the underlying data (for example, a record has been deleted by another user), the provider returns warnings to the Errors collection but does not halt program execution. A run-time error occurs only if there are conflicts on all the requested records. Use the Filter property (adFilterAffectedRecords) and the Status property to locate records with conflicts.
