The following example shows the usage of the Clone method. Before running the sample code, make sure that you have the necessary datatypes and tables in the database. See Schema Description used in examples of OraObject/OraRef.

Dim OraSession as OraSession

Dim OraDatabase as OraDatabase

Dim OraDynaset as OraDynaset

Dim Address as OraObject

Dim AddressClone as OraObject

'Create the OraSession Object.

Set OraSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")

'Create the OraDatabase Object by opening a connection to Oracle.

Set OraDatabase = OraSession.OpenDatabase("ExampleDb", "scott/tiger", 0&)

'create a dynaset object from person_tab

set OraDynaset = OraDatabase.CreateDynaset("select * from person_tab",0&)

'retrieve a address column from person_tab. Here Value property of OraField object

'returns Address OraObject

set Address = OraDynaset.Fields("Addr").Value

'here Address OraObject points to Address value instance in the server for the first row

msgbox Address.Street

'move to second row

OraDynaset.MoveNext

'here Address OraObject points to Address value instance in the server for the second row

msgbox Address.Street

'get the clone of Address object. This clone points to the copy of the value instance for

'second row

set AddressClone = Address.Clone

'move to third row

OraDynaset.MoveNext

'here Address OraObject points to Address value instance in the server for third row

msgbox Address.Street

'here AddressClone OraObject points to copy of Address value instance in the server

'for second row

msgbox AddressClone.Street
