5.0 out of 5 stars The best quick reference for ADO programmers I have found!
Its a very easy to follow book with ADO source for most visual studio products. I used it for enterprise VB6 development and found everything I needed to know. It has a very good reference in the back for ADO constant names and values, came in really handly when coding an ADO error handling class.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not up to Wrox standards
If you have Wrox's "ADO 2.0 Programmer's Reference" and it's sample code from the Wrox WEB site, save you're money. Download "Migrating from DAO to ADO" from Microsoft's MSDN.

The ADOX samples are too shallow.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thorough documentation for all applications using ADO, November 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: ADO 2.1 Programmer's Reference (Paperback)
I am a VB and ASP programmer and often find myself searching for the differences in the syntax and features between the two applications. This book provides complete syntax and feature documentation for all applications; VB, ASP, C++, etc. I will definitely be looking for the updated version as soon as its available.

I could research issues in minutes, whereas with other sources I'd be lucky to find an answer in a few hours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good, October 8, 1999
By 
Derek Smith (London, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ADO 2.1 Programmer's Reference (Paperback)
Very good reference on ADO 2.1. Most programmers concerns addressed. All the examples are in Visual BASIC although it does say other that other langauge examples can be downloaded from the publishers web site. At the moment (8th December 1999) the C++ examples are almost non-existent (1 example C++ program, a Word Doc file & a README.TXT). This is what I need so it will be a slight struggle to translate the VB code into VC++ equivalent.

Subramanian (Edison, NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: ADO 2.1 Programmer's Reference (Paperback)
A good resource book if you know how to use RDO,DAO in visual basic. The only lacking part of this book is good examples even though some are available.
