Rafael,
I can't help with ADO, because I don't use it, but to do the above, I 
use something like this: (Off the top of my head)

1) Create a connection on the SQL server (I can give you more info, if 
neeeded)

2)
nHandle = SqlConnect("MyConnection")
if nHandle < 0
        * some sort of error message
        RETURN
endif

cSQL = "Select * from Customers where custid = " + Transform(nCustID)
nResult = SQLEXec(nHandle, cSQL, "MyCursor")

if nResult < 0
        messagebox(message())  && Some sort of error handling
endif

Select MyCursor
scan
        && blah blah blah
endscan

cSQL = "update customers set lastname = 'Smith' where custid = " + 
transform(nCustId)

nResult = SQLEXec(nHandle, cSQL, "")
* etc
