VC ADO CreateParameter

listening ..

You have 2 options when working with ADO, and it doesn't matter if it is from VC++ or VB or something else.
1) you issue first a command->Parameters->Refresh() call and from there on you just set the values of the parameters, because the parameters collection is already created
2) you know exactly the order and number of the required srtored procedure parameters ( there can be optional parameters to an SP, and they don't have to be specified in ADO command ), and you issue command->CreateParameter() calls for each parameter and in the correct order

Hope this clears teh things a little,

izakref will You happy with:

   szSQL=(LPTSTR)malloc(255);
   wsprintf((LPTSTR)szSQL,"exec sp_CreateUser @username='%s', @userpassword='%s', @withupdate=1",m_strUserName,m_strPassword);

using connection:

   pConnection.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Connection));
pConnection->Open((_bstr_t) "DRIVER={SQL Server};UID=blabla;PWD=1234;SERVER=SUPER;DATABASE=LARGE","","",NULL);
pConnection->Execute((_bstr_t) szSQL,NULL,adCmdText);
pConnection->Close();

using recordset, when You need output results:

pRecSet.CreateInstance(__uuidof(Recordset));
//select data from SQL server
pRecSet->Open(  (const _variant_t &) szSQL
            , (const _variant_t &) "DRIVER={SQL Server};UID=blabla;PWD=1234;SERVER=SUPER;DATABASE=LARGE"            , adOpenForwardOnly
            , adLockBatchOptimistic
            , adCmdText);

just dynamically creae szSQL, and go!

good luck!
