The CData ADO.NET Provider for MYOB implements two ADO.NET interfaces you can use to retrieve data from MYOB: MYOBDataAdapter and MYOBDataReader objects. Whereas MYOBDataAdapter objects retrieve a single result set of all the data that matches a query, MYOBDataReader objects fetch data in subset increments as needed.

Using the MYOBDataAdapter

Use the adapter's Fill method to retrieve data from the data source. An empty DataTable instance is passed as an argument to the Fill method. When the method returns, the DataTable instance is populated with the queried data. Note that the MYOBDataAdapter is slower than the MYOBDataReader because the Fill method needs to retrieve all data from the data source before returning.

The following example selects the Id and Name columns of the Accounts table:

C#

string connectionString = " If using an online instance: InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientId=YourClientId;OAuthClientSecret=YourClientSecret;CompanyFileId=yourCompanyFileId;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;User=companyFileUser;Password=companyFilePassword; If using an on premise instance: InitiateOAuth=OFF;URL=http://localhost:8080/accountright;CompanyFileId=327eed10-9615-4e5e-bd9e-ae2cc00e2c70;User=companyFileUser;Password=companyFilePassword;";

using (MYOBConnection connection = new MYOBConnection(connectionString)) {
  MYOBDataAdapter dataAdapter = new MYOBDataAdapter(
  "SELECT Id, Name FROM Accounts", connection);

  DataTable table = new DataTable();
  dataAdapter.Fill(table);

  Console.WriteLine("Contents of Accounts.");

  foreach (DataRow row in table.Rows) {
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row["Id"], row["Name"]);
  }
}

VB.NET

Dim connectionString As String = " If using an online instance: InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH;OAuthClientId=YourClientId;OAuthClientSecret=YourClientSecret;CompanyFileId=yourCompanyFileId;CallbackURL=http://localhost:33333;User=companyFileUser;Password=companyFilePassword; If using an on premise instance: InitiateOAuth=OFF;URL=http://localhost:8080/accountright;CompanyFileId=327eed10-9615-4e5e-bd9e-ae2cc00e2c70;User=companyFileUser;Password=companyFilePassword;"

Using connection As New MYOBConnection(connectionString)
  Dim dataAdapter As New MYOBDataAdapter("SELECT Id, Name FROM Accounts", connection)

  Dim table As New DataTable()
  dataAdapter.Fill(table)

  Console.WriteLine("Contents of Accounts.")

  For Each row As DataRow In table.Rows
    Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", row("Id"), row("Name"))
  Next
End Using
