Seconded, IF you'll never need to move your platform to non-Windows
(or, if you're carefully wrapping your ADO-using parts so you can
recode them to the DB-Api if and when needed).  ADO (and ADOX) let
me do lots of cool stuff in very handy AND well-performing ways
(not just relational DB access, either -- multidimensional [OLAP] and
hierarchical accesses are quite well-supported too).
