How to capture the data returned wSDBSelectRecords in sage 50 2016 CA SDK with Visual Basic .NET?

SOLVED

I´m using ConnectionManagerService.dll and I am using the function wSDBSelectRecords with this syntax: 

Call wSDBSelectRecords(iDBLink, iTBLink, "", 0, True)

But I do not know how to capture the data you are going to select in a DataTable. I´m Working with Visual Basic .NET Fraework 4.5

Could help me with this?

    I do not know if I'm doing it correctly. I declare the functions as follows.

    Public Declare Function wSDBSelectRecords Lib "Sage_SA_dblyr.dll" (ByVal wDBLinkNo As Short, ByVal wTBLinkNo As Short, ByVal pszFilter As String, ByVal wKey As Short, ByVal wFlags As Boolean) As Short

    Public Declare Function wSDBFetchRecord Lib "Sage_SA_dblyr.dll" (ByVal wDBLinkNo As Short, ByVal wTBLinkNo As Short, ByVal pRecord As Byte(), ByVal wFetch As Short, ByVal pFetched As Byte()) As Short

    And when I execute the functions with the following parameters:

    Dim pCount As Short
    Dim pRecord2(1999) As Byte
    Dim pFetched(1999) As Byte

    Call wSDBSelectRecords(iDBLink, iTBLink, "", 0, True)
    Call wSDBFetchRecord(iDBLink, iTBLink, pRecord2, pCount, pFetched)

    I do not know where or how to view the records returned for the function, to work with them.

    Hi,

    in wSDBSelectRecords(iDBLink, iTBLink, "", 0, True), it looks like the "" is where you need a pointer to a string that contains the criteria.

    An empty string might contain a null terminator char 255, or nothing at all, and select no results for the next line of code to fetch.

    I would use one of the database utility functions as used in the sample file in the c# folder. It doesn't appear that the VB sample is as complex as the c# one, I don't know how portable it is between the .NET flavours.
