ADO Provider Property
 Complete Connection Object Reference
The Provider property sets or returns a string value that contains the provider name
for a specific Connection object. Default is MSDASQL (Microsoft OLE DB provider for ODBC).
Look at Provider Codes
This property is read/write when the connection is closed.
The provider name can also be set with the ConnectionString property of the
Connection object or the ConnectionString parameter of the Open
method.
Note: Never set the provider for a specific Connection in more than one place.
