VB.NET and MDAC+JETWhen writing database program with VB.NET that accesses MDB and XLS file, do you guys know if I still need to distribute MDAC and JET4 to the client machine? Or .NET framework already comes with all those drivers?

Jet is free and if you use AdoNet and when you use OleDB, than you don't need AFAIK nothing more.

As far as I know are all the computers where Net can run on already with the proper MDAC installed.

Mdac 2.5 was the last version that had everything included ( Jet oledb ) to access Access :-) Since version 2.5 Jet oledb has become a seperate installation so my recomendation would be ,, ship the jet oledb merge module with your deployment and you should be safe regards Michel Posseth [MCP] Show quoteHide quote "Spam Catcher" <spamhoneypot@rogers.com> schreef in bericht news:Xns987C9A5B7A4C3usenethoneypotrogers@127.0.0.1... > Spam Catcher <spamhoneypot@rogers.com> wrote in > news:Xns987C9A196C7CFusenethoneypotrogers@127.0.0.1: > >> MDAC has been included as a system component since Windows 2000. >> >> However, most users on Windows 98 should (but you may want to write a >> check routine) have MDAC installed as well. > > BTW, MDAC for Windows 2000 is MDAC v2.5.
