Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Jet was dropped from the MDAC
install back at v 2.6 of MDAC, that you had to install Jet separately?
Has it been re-included?

[Later...] Actually, checking the provided link, I see this comment:

This release does not include Microsoft Jet, the Microsoft Jet OLE DB
Provider or ODBC driver, the Desktop Database ODBC Drivers, or the
Visual FoxPro ODBC Driver.

You can get the Jet install here:

John

you're completely right. I always forget that because it's been a
looong time since I used JET... :)

Thanks for the correction,
