MORE INFORMATION

How to Find ADO Knowledge Base Articles

ADO is not an ASP-specific technology. ADO is also used with other products such as Visual Basic and Visual C++. Therefore, ADO is treated as its own product in the Microsoft Knowledge Base. To find ADO Knowledge Base articles on the Web, you would connect to the following site:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/support/

Then select "ActiveX Data Objects" as the product.

For the MSDN or other non-Web-based Knowledge Base search mechanisms, you can use the keyword adobj, which all ADO articles will contain.

ADO Resources / Points of Information

ADO originally shipped with the OLE-DB SDK, so you will want to check both the OLE-DB Web page and the ADO Web site:

http://www.microsoft.com/ado/
http://www.microsoft.com/oledb/
