Anil,
ESP or (Extended Stored Procs) can use the OLE-DB API and if you are using
the DBLib API you are cutting your own code's future as it is most likely
(un-confirmed) that Microsoft will drop, i.e.. remove the DB-Library API
from future SQL Server versions, such as SQL Server 2005 (Yukon).

See SQL Server 2000 BOL titles "Running Stored Procedures (OLE DB)",
"Extended Stored Procedure Architecture", "Programming Extended Stored
Procedures" and "Samples" and specifically the sample app xp-ODBC for more
info.

In the final analysis, if you're putting the time and effort to write your
own ESP wouldn't you want to use all of the features and data types that SQL
Sever 2000 contains as well as be fully supported in future versions and
applications?

Regards,
John
