Applies to: Access 2013, Office 2013
Microsoft Access provides three object models to use in the creation, maintaining, and managing of your Access databases and their related data by using Visual Basic.
Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects (ADO)
ADO contains the objects needed to create, maintain, and delete records in a given datasource.
Microsoft ADO ext. for DDL and security (ADOX)
ADOX provides the Data Definition Language (DDL) objects needed to create a new database and its contained objects in addition to the objects needed to manage security.
Microsoft Jet and Replication Objects 2.5 library (JRO)
Because ADO objects were designed to work with many databases in addition to Microsoft Jet databases, functionality specific to Jet was broken out into the JRO library.
The following table lists the functionality provided by each compared to DAO.
* Only available when working with Microsoft Access databases. Future versions of the SQL Provider may provide this functionality in Microsoft Access projects (.adp).
** Only available when working with Access projects.
*** Although the Access database engine does support some ANSI 92 SQL, it is not yet fully ANSI92-compliant.
1 Uses Connection object to reference database.
2 Uses Catalog object to reference database.
3 Uses Replica object to reference database.
4 Uses JetEngine object to reference database.
Note
Unlike DAO, ADO and ADOX objects can perform the marked actions in databases other than Jet as long as the provider for those databases supports that action.

Sandboxing restricts the apps from accessing resources outside the app container. This affects any add-ins or macros that involve file access or communication across processes. You can minimize the effects of sandboxing by using the new commands described in the following section.
