Yes, you are correct. It's even more important for ADO access because you can get errors under some circumstances if there's no SET NOCOUNT ON in SP.

>Just so I am 100% clear on this <s>. If I connect to a database using OleDb or something and then execute a stored procedure the server will tell the client "nn rows affected" as many times as I have update statements in my SP (If I don't SET NOCOUNT ON)?
