Product Release Deprecation Notices
December 2002
Dear Valued Customer,
DataDirect Technologies’ strategy is to deliver highest value products with the most up-to-date technology, and to enable you to leverage our customer support expertise through a variety of programs. As part of these programs, we regularly release updated versions of our products. As you may already be aware, DataDirect Connect for ADO, Release 2.7 is now available.
DataDirect Technologies’ general policy is to provide support for the current release of our product and the immediately prior release. With each new release, we drop support for older versions and platforms, particularly those that may no longer be supported by the database vendors themselves. Please review our current support matrices on www.datadirect.com for full details on the database versions and platforms that are currently supported.
Pursuant to this policy, our ADO 2.5 product is no longer supported. ADO 2.6 is now the immediately prior release and will be supported until the next release of Connect for ADO. To ensure the best performance, functionality, and reliability, we strongly recommend that you plan for an upgrade to DataDirect Connect for ADO, Release 2.7. We offer a variety of support options that can assist you with implementing the most effective migration path for your organization.
Thank you for being our valued customer and we look forward to continuing to support your data access needs.
Sincerely,
Sue Purkis
Product Marketing Manager,
DataDirect Connect for
