ADO - ADOX requirements

 Keywords: ADO ADOX requirements 

Question:

Any special software required for ADO? Can I use it anywhere I could use ODBC, or is it something completely different? Where would be a good place to start reading about it?

I've got plain vanilla win98 machines, with MDAC installed.

Answer:

MDAC is ADO (or it contains the ADO Objects). If you installed MDAC to its defaults, then under 'Program Files\Microsoft Data Access\Docs' there are help files for ADO and OLE - in the \inc subdir are ASCII files with all the ADO constants and numeric equivalents.

MDAC 2.6 has been released, it is free from Microsoft, and you can also get the MDAC SDK which is a super support piece.

Finally, there are dozens of examples with source code posted in this section of the tech support database.
