{{dablink|For the football team, see [[ADO Den Haag]].}}
Microsoft '''ADO''' (ActiveX Data Objects) is a [[Component object model]] object for accessing data sources. It provides a layer between [[programming language]]s and [[OLE DB]] (a means of accessing data stores, whether they be [[databases]] or otherwise, in a uniform manner), which allows a developer to write programs which access data, without knowing how the database is implemented. You must be aware of your database for connection only. No knowledge of [[SQL]] is required to access a database when using ADO, although one can use ADO to execute arbitrary SQL commands. The disadvantage of this is that this introduces a dependency upon the database.
