Re Pear DB Tutorial - Now Microsoft ADO+.

Hi Tomas I linked to your PEAR DB article also at my website, http://php.weblogs.com/ For more info about microsoft's ADO+, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?URL=/library/techart/adoplus.h tm Article by Dino Esposito that discusses the increased interoperability and scalability provided by ADO+, the latest incarnation of ADO. http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/issues/1100/adoplus/adoplus.asp Article by Omri Gazitt for MSDN magazine. ADO+ is the new set of data access services for the .NET Framework. ADO+ is a natural evolution of ADO, built around n-tier development and architected with XML at its core. This article presents the design motivations behind ADO+, as well as a brief introduction to the various classes in the two layers that comprise the ADO+ Framework.
