Dinesh,

In my opinio is the most important decission you have to make when you ask
this in connection to your database is if you stay with AdoDb or go to
ADONET. The last is a complete different approach because it handles
disconnected dataset (those holds datatables which you can compare with
recordsets you are probably using now).

The disconnection means as well that you than have to handle your
concurrency in another way.

However important is how you did use at the moment your database in your UI
(forms), that can make the big difference.

Good newsgroups for your problems can be
Microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb (when you are going on and it is not
only conversion)
Microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet (to get a deeper opinion as well
about this problem)
Microsoft.public.data.adodb (a small newsgroup with mostly the same persons
as above).

Just to give some ideas,

Cor
