# ADO BOF and EOF Properties

Complete Recordset Object Reference

The BOF property returns True (-1) if the current record position is before the first record in the Recordset, otherwise it returns False (0).

The EOF property returns True (-1) if the current record position is after the last record in the Recordset, otherwise it returns False (0).

Note: The BOF and EOF properties are set to True if you open an empty Recordset. RecordCount property is zero.

Note: If a Recordset holds at least one record, the first record is the current and the BOF and EOF properties are False.

### Syntax

    objRecordset.BOF

    or

    objRecordset.EOF

### Example

    <%
    set conn=Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    conn.Provider="Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0"
    conn.Open(Server.Mappath("northwind.mdb"))
    set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
    sql="SELECT Companyname, Contactname FROM Customers"
    rs.Open sql, conn
