>That's what I thought. Is there any particular reason you prefer ADO?
- Easier to detect changes to data and send those changes to the backend with ADO.
- Passing large amounts of data via XML is SLLLLLOOOOOWWWWW.
- I can bind UI controls directly to the ADO record set. XML requires conversion.
- I can send an ADO record set directly to Crystal Reports. For XML, I have to save the data to disk.
- It's easier to get ADO from different back end databases.
