1. Was the ADO Connection object written to support being aggregated within another COM object?
2. If ( !1 ) Can an ADO Connection object be run as a surrogate DLL on another host?
3. If ( !1 && !2 ) Any advice on opening up a connection to a database on another host which isn't in the local ODBC registry and where the hostname is not known until run-time?
Thx,
Rick
