ADO 2.8 UUID (for use with ASP on Windows 2003)

[Josh Hillman]

What is the UUID associated with ADO 2.8?
The most current one I've found for use with ASP is:

<!--METADATA TYPE="typelib"
UUID="EF53050B-882E-4776-B643-EDA472E8E3F2"
NAME="Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.7 Library" -->

I'm moving some stuff over to a Windows 2003 server and figured I'd
update the information since it's using ADO 2.8. Unfortunately, I
couldn't find the information at msdn.microsoft.com or anywhere else
for that matter.

Look in your computer's registry, the CSLID is stored there.

-or-

You can use a path instead, ala:

<!-- METADATA TYPE="TypeLib" FILE="C:\Program Files\Common
Files\system\ado\msado15.dll" -->

provided that c:\ is your boot partition (the one that holds your Windows
installation directory). the above will work for any version of MDAC from
v1.5 through to v2.8

Cheers
Ken

I found the UUID based on the following registry entry:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Typelib\{2A75196C-D9EB-4129-B803-931327F72D5C}\
2.8\(Default) = Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library

<!--METADATA TYPE="typelib"
UUID="2A75196C-D9EB-4129-B803-931327F72D5C"
NAME="Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 Library"-->
