# RowPosition Property (ADO)
Gets or sets an OLE DB **RowPosition** object from/on an **ADORecordsetConstruction** object. When you use **put_RowPosition** to set the **RowPosition** object, the resulting **Recordset** object uses the **RowPosition** object to determine the current row.  
  
 Read/write.  
  
## Syntax  
  
```  
HRESULT get_RowPosition([out, retval] IUnknown** ppRowPos);  
HRESULT put_RowPosition([in] IUnknown* pRowPos);  
```  
  
## Parameters  
 *ppRowPos*  
 Pointer to an OLE DB **RowPosition** object.  
  
 *PRowPos*  
 An OLE DB **RowPosition** object.  
  
## Return Values  
 This property method returns the standard HRESULT values, including S_OK and E_FAIL.  
  
## Remarks  
 When this property is set, if the **Rowset** object on the **RowPosition** object is different from the **Rowset** object on the **Recordset** object, the former overrides the latter. The same behavior applies to the current **Chapter** of the **RowPosition** as well.  
  
## Applies To  
 [ADORecordsetConstruction Interface](../../../ado/reference/ado-api/adorecordsetconstruction-interface.md)
