>Since I've got you on the line so to speak. I seem to remember you being pretty handy with VB. Do you have any good references on using ADO to suggest? The information I have seems to roam around in circles. I'm looking for general how to and best practices information.

I don't have anybooks or sites to recommend. Drop into the VB study group. See my sig for details. Also check out the MSDN and vb.wikis.com
