ADO.NET is a data access interface that uses any number of .NET data
providers including SqlClient (to talk to SQL Server), SqlCe (to talk to SQL
Server Compact Edition), OracleClient (to talk to Oracle) and OSFA providers
like Odbc and OleDb which require ODBC drivers or OLEDB data providers to
talk to a variety of backends.

so, if I wanted to talk to sqLite through ADO, I would need "sqliteClient" or I would need to get an oledb provider for SQLite ?

if I find an OleDB provider for SQLite then does it require installation on the server for usage ?

Hi Jon,

There is no SQLite client in ADO.Net but you can use the OleDB client.  
This page explains how to use oledb with sqlite.

Actually, there's a great ADO.NET client for SQLite at:

http://sqlite.phxsoftware.com

Of course, it won't work with the OleDb framework he's trying to use, but
that's another matter.

Most mainstream SQL databases have "native" .NET providers using managed
code. These are supplied by the DBMS vendor or can be purchased from 3rd
parties like Data Direct. It's best to use these native providers before
attempting to use a generic OLEDB provider--if you care about performance.

Cowboy (Gregory A. Beamer)
OleDb is a type of provider for ADO.NET. Of the many provider types, ODBC
and OLEDB are the more generic means of access. ODBC will work with any ODBC
compliant database engine, while OLEDB requires an OLEDB specific
driver/provider for the database you are attempting to access.

ADO.NET is a framework that includes OLEDB and other types of provider
libraries.

Not the best explanation, but it will do in a pinch.
