[AccessD] Jet OLEDB provider - deprecated?

Gustav,

  Actually if you look back at Brett's original post, he has a link to the
article I was thinking of.  However I was still off<g>.  MDAC 2.5 was the
last release that contained the JET components.  2.6 did not have JET.

Hi Jim

Nope. Jet 4.0 is included in MDAC 2.6.
Don't know about the "JRO components" though.
