Well, I don't agree with Sergey on that. ODBC requires many more system resources, which leaves less for VFP to work with.

Before figuring out how to configure the CA to use ADO, you should understand how to use ADO directly. You may already know this, but just in case, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnfoxgen/html/adojump.asp?frame=true

I just want my framework to be able to use any of the 3. I'm guessing the Native is supposed to be faster...
