###List

This class is essentially a Collection<T>, where all items are of type T... with lots of added functionality, largely inspired by .NET's System.Collections.Generics.List<T>. You'll never want to use a bare-bones Collection again!

###SqlCommand

Originally written for VB6 with SQL Server connections, this code works perfectly well with MySQL in VBA as well. The class can be used both as a "static class" and an object. This type/object is best used with the UnitOfWork class, which can encapsulate a database transaction.

###SqlResult

SqlCommand methods can return instead of an ADODB.Recordset - use it for smaller result sets, because there's a performance tradeoff here: when SqlCommand returns this object, the results have already been iterated once; for larger result sets it's probably better to work off the ADODB.Recordset directly.

###SqlResultRow

This class is essentially a generic DTO that SqlResult uses to "materialize" query results. Use the default property Item to refer to field names by name or by index.

###UnitOfWork

This class maintains a dictionary of IRepository implementations and initiates a database transaction when instantiated. The Dispose method rolls back any uncommitted changes, before closing the connection - this method is called automatically when the instance is terminated. Calling the Commit method commits the open transaction, and initiates a new one; calling the Rollback method rolls back the open transaction, and initiates a new one.
