There's no need to have any version of Access on the server. If you have the
latest version of Jet on your server, it can read Access 2000 and 2003
files, without requiring any additional installation. Jet used to be bundled
with MDAC, but it's now available separately (although you'll still want the
latest version of MDAC too, typically):
