SQL DMO Resources for SQL Server

Introduction

As I work with a particular topic or problem, I often research on the Internet different opinions, white papers, etc. Here is a list of resources that are located both on SQL Server Central and other sites that I have found useful.

Online Resources - General

SQL Server 7 INF: Enabling SQL DMO Clients Without Installing the Client Side Utilities (Q248241) Want a DMO app without client utilities? This shows how.

Online Resources - VB

MSDN - Developing SQL-DMO Applications Using Visual Basic A series of articles on using VB to develop DMO solutions.
Introduction to SQL-DMO An introduction to DMO written by Andy Warren of SQLServerCentral. This provides the basics of what you need to start building a SQL-DMO solution.

Online Resources - VC++

MSDN - Developing SQL-DMO Applications Using C or C++ An overview of the C++ DMO section on MSDN. I'm not a VC++ guru, but this seems to provide a good basic overview of developing a VC++ DMO solution.
