If you import ADODB_TLB (as Charlie Calvert suggests) you can write _much_
"prettier" code -- but you still cannot use data-aware controls. If you use
something like Adonis or one of the other alternatives suggested at the BDE
Alternatives Guide (http://www.kylecordes.com/bag/index.html), you get a
TDataSet descendant so you can use data aware controls.
