The way it is usually done is to use ADO code, but late-bound as you cannot have References (or even proper data types - just Variants ).

If you do that, you can use normal ADO code (like in the "Classic VB - ADO" section of our Database Development FAQs/Tutorials), just leaving out the data types, using values instead of enums (eg: replace adOpenForwardOnly with the number it refers to, which may be 3), and changing any Set lines, eg:

Usual ADO:
Code:
Set cn = New ADODB.Connection
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
late bound:
Code:
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
On top of that, you do not have controls as you normally would, so you need to use code to create the HTML equivalents (HTML forms reference).
