William I posted this questin to them a lot of weeks ago. Could you provide me with a list of the bugs that have been fixed in this release. Not new features BUGS FIXED. I am waiting for a reply. If you would like to frame up the question for me I will pass it on to them.

At the moment William I would say no. DAO has some changes but mostly to do with the new SharePoint related types, Attachment and Allow Multiple Values. I am actually working with both DAO and ADO in 2007 and for all the day to day type stuff there would appear to be little changed at the moment. If you want to send me a sample I can test it out for you in terms of speed etc in A2003 and A2007.
