>I might be wrong here, but can't you just set the projet referneces to the ADO Object Library 2.5 instaed of 2.6? Then it should use the 2.5 code contained in the 2.6 DLLs.
ADO 2.5 and 2.6 are sharing the same DLLs (2.6 has overwritten 2.5). So even if you set your reference to 2.5, you are using 2.6
