VB DataType equivalent of ADO adBigInt Type

Hi everybody,

Can someone point me into the right direction how I can parse binary data into an ADO adBigInt Data Type using VB?

I know the binary data represents a BigInt (8 bytes) but don't know how to 'convert' this to a valid data type. Finally I have to return an ADO Record Set from the Data passed in using some kind of description file.

Google is not my friend (at the moment).

TIA,
Sinna
