Version Property Example (VJ++)

This example uses the Version property of a Connection object to display the current ADO version. It also uses several dynamic properties to show:

• the current DBMS name and version.
• OLE DB version.
• provider name and version.
• ODBC version.
• ODBC driver name and version.
