| Is there a difference between using a connection string with SQLOLEDB.1 versus just SQLOLEDB? I want to make sure I am using the latest OLE DB drivers.Thanks!~BrandonL |

| The only thing the .1 does is specify the precise version number. Normally you don't need this as (I'm pretty sure) any install of a new OLEDB version will either overwrite the old one, or will default the version-unspecified provider to point to the newest one. Unless you have problems, might as well leave the .1 out of the connection string. |
