  I'm reading "Inside ASP.NET" (New Riders Publishing). This book says that web browser interaction with sql server goes through ADO.NET.

  But the SQL Server Books Online says that browser interactions go through SQLOLEDB/sqlxml.dll.

  Which is right? Can it go either way? Is one way preferable?

  Thanks,

  You can use both ado.net and xpath queries. In ado.net you have more functionality.
