Maybe something like this:

float GetADOVersion()
{
   CoInitialize( NULL );
   float Result = 0.0;
   try
   {
      Variant Ado;
      Ado = CreateOleObject( "ADODB.Connection"  );
      Result = Ado.OlePropertyGet ( "Version"  );
      Ado.Clear();
   }
   __finally
   {
      CoUninitialize();
   }
   return( Result );
}

I'm not sure I have understoud this... MDAC is a complete set of components.
