I think ExecuteReader should work for everything. I use only 
ExecuteReader in my private tool (but I do not use stored procedures).

You will have a bigger problem with ADO.NET than this. According to the 
Python dbapi specification, you can have as many cursors per connection 
as you want. You can have many cursors in ADO.NET too, but you can have 
only one SqlDataReader per connections which makes several cursors per 
connection useless.
