This is a good function to know about, but I don't see how I could pass such an object as an ADO parameter. When looking at the list of possible ADO parameters types (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ado270/htm/mdcstdatatypeenum.asp), I see objects, but about them I read "This data type is currently not supported by ADO. Usage may cause unpredictable results.". I will try it though if there is no other workaround.
