The quickstart has examples for ado.net - Here is a bit of simple code to
get you started with something at least. Just create a DB in access 2000
(called database.mdb), put it in the same directory as the code and run the
code....cross your fingers and it might even work.
Take a look at the excellent example at w3schools
http://www.w3schools.com/aspnet/aspnet_dbconnection.asp
Have a look through the ADO samples here:
