VB & SQL Server

[MikeS]

Good day to you all:

I've been noticing that a lot of you work on SQL Server. What is the connect method of choice and why did you choose it?

I've been working on VB5/SQL Server 6.5 and I'm using ODBCDirect, but co-workers are trying to insist that I use RDO??

Opinions please.

If you don't have VB5/Enterprise edition then you have to stick with ODBCDirect. RDO comes pnly with VB5/Enterprise.

Nope that isn't it - thanks though. Is RDO cleaner or quicker ??

Answer: use what you feel comfortable using.

Good book to help you answer your question:

Hitchhiker's Guide to Visual Basic & SQL Server (at least 5th edition) - ISBN 1-57231-567-9

My personal answer: I use ODBC and/or DAO, depending on my needs.
