Is it possible to develop applications using two different versions of ADO on your PC? &nbsp;That is what I really need to know...

You will not be able to make a reference to two different ADO versions in the same application the CLASSID and name are the same (unlike XML). &nbsp;What you may be able to do (totally untested, as I have never needed to do this) is refer to say version 2.6 and then do the following:<br />
<br />
Dim rs26 As ADODB.Recordset<br />
<br />
Dim rs20 As ADODB.Recordset15<br />
<br />
This last object is normally hidden in the object browser, but can be exposed by right-clicking and selecting &quot;Show Hidden Members&quot;<br />

Anyone know any good links to articles that explain the differences in the multiple versions of ADO, specifically 2.1, 2.5, and 2.7? &nbsp;I just inherited a bunch of systems that all use different versions and I want to get them in sync for development and support reasons.....

Different Versions of ADO

Delphi is the most powerful Object Pascal IDE and component library for cross-platform Native App Development with flexible Cloud services and broad IoT connectivity. It provides powerful VCL controls for Windows 10 and enables FMX development for Windows, Mac and Mobile. Delphi is your choice for ultrafast Enterprise Strong Development™. Look for increased memory for large projects, extended multi-monitor support, improved Object Inspector and much more. Delphi is 5x faster for development and deployment across multiple desktop, mobile, cloud and database platforms including 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 10.

Delphi

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
