Why is ADO much slower than The intrinsic Datacontrol that comes with VB

I have a Flat Table with 50000 + (Part Codes) and am using Component Ones' TruegridPro to display them

Whilst using the Intrinsic Data Control that ships with VB - this grid loads these records almost instant

However when I use the ADO Data control - it takes about 20 seconds to load

Has Microsoft gone backwards in their approach or is it just me?(I'm sure it's me!)

Can anybody offer suggestions

C1's probably implemented a real fast method to perform the loading of the data. I think it really depends upon the cursor location, cursor type, lock type, connection type, etc. that you use.

it also depends on the table from which u r selecting...
whether u have proper index created on it or not ....
