Display an ADO recordset as a datasheet in MS Access data project

I am using Access 2002 as an adp front end to SQL Server 2000.  I want to create a recordset in ADO using parameters selected by the user and display it in a datasheet view, the same display result you get from DoCmd.OpenQuery and DoCmd.OpenStoredProcedure.

Thanks for clarifying this issue.  A related follow-up question.  Is it possible to open a stored procedure as a datasheet AND pass it some parameters or can you only open sprocs that require no parameters?

Well, bear in mind that it's something I'd never want to do anyway... I certainly don't know of a way that you'd do that (without the parameter prompts popping up at you).

You should really be looking to use forms for such things.
You gain so much more control.
