It simply loads the assembly with the provider... ;-)

When it's loaded into memory, you can access it's classes, without the need
to include it beforehand, when compiling your application.

Depending on which ADO.NET-provider you want to load, this way you can load
it dynamically on the fly, e.g. "MySql.Data.dll" for MySQL, etc.

With ini-file, I just mean some kind of configuration file, containing plain
text strings with information about assembly names, names for the connection
classes, connection strings etc, in short the strings needed for the
reflection, to be able to load the right assemblies, instantiate the
classes, etc. Personally, I'm going for some XML-formatted configuration
file in my adhoc-query-machine... ;-)
