I'm looking into either an ADO or LINQ method that I can use to access some data contained in a VB6 - written program from withing a C# program that I am developing in the ORCAS beta 2 VS. The data is not in a SQL database, not MDB or Access format nor Jet database, and may well a home-grown db. There is an exposed DLL for accessing the data, but having been written in VB6, it's a very clunky access in C#-9. I've been investigating ADO ( object data) access, thought about LINQ and then realized that I already had a copy of your book on hand! Having read it once, I was not thinking of this current project, but now that I am I'm wondering if there is a convenient LINQ way to access this database, or barring that, even an ADO method, or should I just give it up and write the clunky code access method? Any help would be very greatly appreciated.
