What exactly do you already know about it? I mean in what direction and at what level are you looking for an answer?
It basically instantiates a new COM object for you, so you can work with it. It's using late binding, which means the type / interfaces are not available until run-time.
BTW: you're better off posting this in another forum with a different subject. A) it's technical, so it has nothing to do with feedback on the P2P site and B), it's not related to ADO, really, although you can use Server.CreateObject to create ADO instances.
