Before accessing attributes of a referenceable instance, it should be fetched
(pinned) on the client side. OO4O implicitly pins the REF value when attribute
values are accessed from the OraRef object. After the pin operation, attributes of the referenceable instance are
accessed in the same manner as accessing attributes of a value instance
represented by the OraObject.
The following example pins the APERSON REF value (implicitly) and access its name and address attributes. Note that accessing address attribute in turn returns an Address OraObject.
set OO4OSession = CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
set hrDb = OO4OSession.OpenDatabase("ExampleDb", "scott/tiger", 0)
set Customer = hrDb.CreateDynaset("select * from customers", 0&)
set Person = Customer.Fields("aperson").Value
msgbox Person.Name
set Address = Person.Addr
msgbox Address.City
