Hey Don,
Nothing to be sorry about. I more and more use C#.NET (with or w/o conjunction to VFP) and what, am I a traitor:)
ADO access to VFP using either VFPOLEDB (preferred) or MSDASQL is straight forward. Is there anything specific you're asking?
A simple code updating employee (will write VFP style naturally, I can't dim:)

oConn = createobject('ADODB.Connection')
oConn.ConnectionString = "Provider=VFPOLEDB;Data Source=c:\myPath\TestData.dbc"
oConn.Open
oConn.Execute('set null off')
oRS = oConn.Execute("insert into employee (emp_id,First_name,Last_Name)"+;
     " values ('xxx','Don','Weaver')")
oConn.Close
