asp_databases thread: ado version


Message #1 by "John Sen Yong" <yjohns@t...> on Wed, 28 Feb 2001 16:49:36 +0800
hi

my MDAC version is 2.1 ...

but i have no ideals on my ado?

does this mean my ado also 2.1 as well?

is that a way to find out?

i also heard that win98 doesnot support server.transfer and 

server.execute since this function only for ASP 3.0?

does this anything to do with ado version?

please help,Urgent!

Hmm don't know about that version number, but what I do know is that with

Windows2000 you'll have

ADO 2.5 and ASP 3.0

It's correct that server.transer and server.execute are new in ASP 3.0.

If you have installed MDAC version 2.1 ADO is also at 2.1, because ADO is a 

part of MDAC.

You can go to www.microsoft.com/data/ and download the Component Checker to 

find out which version you have exactly.



Server.Transfer and Server.Execute are indeed methods of ASP 3.0 and 

therefore not supported on Win 98. You'll need Win 2K with IIS 5 to use ASP 3.0

The ASP version has nothing to do with the ADO version. That is, you can 

usually run an older version of ADO with a newer version of ASP and vice versa.

If you have access to the server and enough rights to install stuff, I'd 

install ADO 2.5 or 2.6 if I were you. 2.5 is rather stable and provides a 

lot of new interesting features.



Hope this Helps,



Imar
