    ADO vs DAO

    I am developing an application with VB.Net. Currently I am storing my data in an Access 2000 database. Should I connect to this databse via ADO or DAO. I am more familiar with DAO because I have used it when developing applications in Access. I have been told that using ADO was pointless because I am using Access and not SQL Server.

    However, I want to develop this application with scalibilty in mind. I may in the future choose to move over to SQL Server and I would like to develop my front end so that the transition would be a simple one. Keeping this is mind, Does anyone have some suggestions as to how to go about developing the front end? Should I create a code module that connects to my database? Or should I connect to the database with each form i create?

    Thanks.
