How to Find ADO Knowledge Base Articles
ADO is not a technology that ships with one particular product, and has been treated as a product in its own right. To find ADO articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) on the Web, connect to:
and choose "ActiveX Data Objects" as the product and enter your specific search topic.
You can also pick "All Microsoft Products" or use the MSDN or other non-Web-based Knowledge Base search mechanisms, and search for the keyword "kbado," which all ADO articles contain.
ADO Resources/Points of Information
ADO originally shipped with the OLE-DB Software Development Kit (SDK), but now is part of Microsoft Data Access Components or MDAC. To learn more about it, please visit the Microsoft Universal Data Access Web site:
