I am trying to use a timestamp column to perform some manual locking (compare value at read time to a re-check at write time) but can't seem to figure out how to pass the timestamp binary datatype into an ADO recordset via ASP. Unfortunately, you can't just declare a variant variable and no matter what I try, I can't seem to find the proper vessel for the timestamp datatype.

I know that this is really more of an ASP-centric question but I really did spend time trying to locate an answer and have yet to find a good resource. I am info-trolling now. I remember reading an article explaining the steps involved in EXACTLY what I am trying to do. Do you think I can find it again... and it was only 2 or 3 days ago.
