[Resolved] MS ADO Requirements

[Bret Reece]

Hi All,

I'm working on an app in VB6 that uses MS ADO as the database engine and I've read lots about what the distribution requirements are, but I'm still pretty confused.

The only reference to ADO in my project is "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library." Everything else is done in code - no data control, no data
environment, etc."

I'm thinking that the vast majority of downloaders will have Windows XP
plus a newer version of IE, so they should have everything that they
need...but I'm not sure.

Is there a document somewhere that's laid out very simple that tells:

- What version of MDAC people will need for my usage of ADO

- What versions of IE come w/ what version of MDAC

- What versions of Windows come w/ what version of MDAC (does it come w/
Windows?)

Also, should I use a different version of ADO to minimize the troubles my users will have? If so, would I have to change a bunch of code?

Any help with this will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Bret Reece
