[AccessD] Access Check References

DAO 5.0 would be the latest and greatest I would think.  It was stuck on
an earlier version for several releases of Access before they decided to
bump it up in 2007, right?

...well ok ...say the Access version is 11 but the Access Object Library
version is 9.0 ...implying that MS did not always change the object
library with each new version of Access ...I'm just guessing of course
but I could live with that.

...but the DAO bit really bugs me ...DAO 5.0????? ...where the heck did
THAT come from?

...someone, somewhere knows the answer ...maybe one day I will as well
...but probably not today ...like jc said ...its "Access" :(
