[AccessD] ODBC Driver 18 and OLEDB Driver 19 are out

[Jim Dettman]

 I was just double checking on drivers and where things were at for a
client, and I found this, which seems to be a good reference:

To assist other readers:

If you are using anything more recent than SQL Server 2012, you should NOT
be using SQL Server native client anyway.
You can check driver compatibility here:
https://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-server-native-client-11-0-oledb-provid
er/
If you ever connect to a newer version of SQL Server (or another back end
server), that is the time to review which driver is needed.
If you do not, you end up with problems using recent features, such as
fields using a new data type.

I don't "like to use" any driver.  I need to use a compatible one.
