ADO vs ADO.net

[Eric Kaplan]

is that the main difference between ADO and ADO.net is

ADO = native C++, need write more code to do query

ADO.net = managed C++, write less code to do the same thing?

To add on to the other responses, the System.Data.Sql Client namespace
objects of ADO.NET provide native SQL Server data access from managed code.
This is in contrast with COM-based ADO, which is basically provides a
higher-level interface to lower level OLEDB drivers like SQLOLEDB.
