I don't think it's that the CoCreateInstance can't be found:
that's a COM error you're seeing and it means that the
IDispatch mechanism can't find the "ADODB.Command" you're
looking for. If I get the chance I'll try to find a Vista
machine to find out what the equivalent is. If anyone on
the list has Vista and/or knows what the score is here,
please let me know.

To double-check, Gurkan, could you open the Registry and
browse to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and look for a key ADODB.Command.
I presume it's not present.
