As far as I know, there's still no ADODB or ODBC support on Snapdragon computers. Is there an ETA? In the meantime, can I use MS Access outside its IDE (where it works fine) or can I use SQL Server or MySQL? Can I use Visual Studio with MS Access or any database in any language?
Thank you

while windows arm can access many external databases, the databases it can natively host beside SQLite is limited. if you install docker with linux container support, you have more options. you can use MySql, PostgreSQL, Mongo (basically all the main databases except SQLServer).

Well, that's interesting. I know I can use SQLite from the command line, and with Xojo, since it has a built-in driver, but I wouldn't know how to use SQLite via C# or VB.Net on Snapdragon with Windows 10 or 11, as there's no ADO and such. Are you saying that SQLite can be used in a development scenario on a Windows Snapdragon platform? I know I could use ODBC on Intel, but I never addressed SQLite directly on Windows without ODBC or ADO except through Xojo, PHP and maybe Ruby, if memory serves.
Yes, I can run Docker or VMWare, etc. Not my first choice, but any port in a storm. It was my obviously ill-considered assumption that Microsoft would expeditiously add ADO support for its new platform if only to spur MS Surface Pro sales and accommodate Visual Studio users, but in hindsight that was a bit optimistic.
Thank you for your quick response,
