# ADO CursorLocation Property

Complete Connection Object Reference

The CursorLocation property sets or returns a long value that indicates the location of the cursor service. It can be set to one of the CursorLocationEnum values. Default value is AdUseServer.

A cursor is used to:

- control record navigation
- control the visibility of changes in the database
- control the updatability of data

Note: A Recordset object inherits this setting from the associated Connection object.

Note: This property is read-only on an open Recordset object, and read/write on a Connection object or on a closed Recordset object.

### Syntax

    objConnection.CursorLocation
    objRecordset.CursorLocation

### 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 * FROM Customers"

    rs.CursorLocation=adUseClient
    rs.CursorType=adOpenStatic
    rs.LockType=adLockBatchOptimistic

    rs.Open sql,conn

    rs.Close
    conn.Close
    %>

### CursorLocationEnum Values

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
adUseNone | 1 | OBSOLETE (appears only for backward compatibility). Does not use cursor services
adUseServer | 2 | Default. Uses a server-side cursor
adUseClient | 3 | Uses a client-side cursor supplied by a local cursor library. For backward compatibility, the synonym adUseClientBatch is also supported
