Yes - I can confirm Dave's comments relative to a full blown Windows 2000
Advanced Server machine as well.
I had identical configurations on both NT Server 4 and Windows 2000 AS - as Dave
says - installing CF 4.01 on Win2K breaks MDAC 2.5 to the point where some ODBC
instructions won't work anymore, and it seems to destroy the SQLOLEDB provider
almost completely.
I certainly won't be upgrading my Win2K until I have to for the sake of CF 4.01
Enterprise, but I do expect Allaire to fix what I regard as a very serious bug.
I don't think Allaire should provide and install MDAC anyway with the install -
MDAC is a matter for system administrators to manage on their own setups as they
see fit IMO.
