Re: ado vs oledb



ADO.NET is a data access interface that uses any number of .NET data
providers including SqlClient (to talk to SQL Server), SqlCe (to talk to SQL
Server Compact Edition), OracleClient (to talk to Oracle) and OSFA providers
like Odbc and OleDb which require ODBC drivers or OLEDB data providers to
talk to a variety of backends.
