Apologies for the late reply

You can use ADO for your database needs. Not as good as ADO.NET, but it gets the job done (and it's built in Windows)

ADO?... VB6.0 can't do it??

VB has no native database support - you have to reference ADO objects.

One thing to remember though is that ADO in VB6 doesn't use connection pooling, so you'll either have to write your own pool management or just use a global connection.
