PROPERTY:  Stream::Mode

Implemented in version 2.5

streamobject.Mode = ConnectModeEnum
ConnectModeEnun = streamobject.Mode


The Mode property sets or returns a ConnectModeEnum constant that dictates the access permissions for a Stream object.

If the access mode is not set, it will be inherited from the source that is used to open the Stream. There are two possible default values for this property. The default for a Stream associated with an underlying data source is adReadOnly. While the default for a Stream that is not associated with an underlying data source is adModeUnknown.

This property is read-only if the Stream object is open and read/write if closed.
