A datapool is a test dataset that supplies data variables
in a test script during playback. Using datapools allows
you to run multiple iterations of a script using different
data each time.

Sub Main
Dim Result As Integer -> Header file

'Initially Recorded: 9/22/01 12:45:07 PM
'Script Name: Classics Place an Order Datapool


Dim x As Integer 'variable for loop
Dim dp As Long 'variable for datapool
Dim quantity, expdate As String 'variables for fields


dp=SQADatapoolOpen("Order CD") -> Open the Data Pool


For x = 1 to 10 -> Start of loop

Call SQADatapoolFetch(dp) ->fetch a row from the data pool
