[AccessD] ADP vs. MDB for SQL 2000

Chris,

Have you seen Martin Reid's recent posts on adps?  I was leaning the same way (adp over mdb) for our group in the future but he's been hinting that "other methods of connecting to SQL" should be considered.  Now I believe his comments were concerning the next rev of SQL but I just thought I'd mention it to you.

HTH,

I am trying to convince a client that's rebuilding a DOS based system with
SQL Server 2000 and Access XP that the .adp format is superior to the .mdb
format for working with SQL Server back ends.  Does anyone have any articles
or any "objective" materials that I could show to them? (Another developer
has them convinced that the .mdb format is the way to go)

Thanks,
