Summary

In this chapter we have introduced you to the world of ADO. We have looked at connections, commands, and recordsets. Whole books have been written on ADO and it's difficult in a single chapter to cover all the ground. We briefly introduced one of the more interesting features of ADO, that of the use of disconnected recordsets. We also looked at searching recordsets for records using Find and Seek and the perhaps better way restricting records using either the WHERE clause of a SQL string or passing parameters using stored procedures or queries.
