Can any one tell me exactly what is ADO.NET?
I am using DX9 to write a Graphics Engine for Games.
Will ADO.NET help me work better with Direct X 9?

No, ADO.NET wont ne helpful in DX9 applecation.
ADO.NET is a set of classes that are used to access data such as MS SQL, MS Access or any other database system or server.
By the way, do you know any good book or referance to start DX9 with C# or VB.net

Oh I never knew that, Thanks for clearing that up mardawi.
a great tutorial for DX9 is on http://www.directx4vb.com/
the only problem is all the code is in VB.NET but u can still grab the principles. The tutorial that comes with dx9 managed is also good.
