ADO is a standard component of Windows 2000 services.  What version of
Windows are you running? Have you installed any service packs or had you
uninstalled Office and then found ADO to work without it?

ADO is the component msft has chosen to focus upon.  It is "the" db access
method in .NET and it is a little different that ADO up to 2.6.

The idea behind ADO is that it is relatively small and extremely versatile.
It is called a "lightweight component".

I am not sure, but I have seen no references to DAO or RDO, for example, in
use with the .NET platform.  Borland even has that super cool ADOExpress,
and this seems to imply they think it is pretty important too.
