Hi Alex,
ADO is a part of MDAC and MDAC is a part of the operating system. So your
application, which uses ADO, will still work without any changes. One
restriction - on your target PC you should have at least same version of
MDAC or newer one.
.NET framework is completely different approach and it will be used only
with the applications, written in .NET. If you developed your application in
Windows 2003, but using VB6, you do not need to distribute .NET Framework
