What are the advantages of ADO. I have used DAO for years and only dabbled in ADO. I am thinking of converting my commonly used classes but need a good reason to.
 

>I was under the impression that Access 97 didn't support ADO? Am I confused?

Basically, we are not talking about the ACCESS 97/2000 interface, but about a JET 3 or JET 4 MDB (Often referred to as an ACCESS 97/2000 database, which is causing/may cause confusion when referring to a JET MDB outside of the ACCESS application), and the ACCESS 97 interface also uses as it's native database.
Don't confuse the ACCESS 97/2000 application with the database itself.
