Firebird
DLL to access Firebird database directly from Visual Basic©
Based on IBPP Client Library for Firebird/Interbase

WHY

Basically for one reason: I'm learning C++ and I was just starting to use Firebird and found IBPP Library very interesting.

WHY NOT

There are many other (and better) ways to access a database with VB (ADO, DAO, ODBC, etc.)

PROS

I can only think of one now: No dependencies on COM (ADO) and drivers. Which translates to easy application instalations.

CONS

Probably lots... :)
