Clarification: An Access 2000 database (.MDB file) uses the Jet 4.0 database engine; 
Access 97 uses Jet 3.5.  Still
a file-based database engine, with many differences from the SQL Server engine.
I think there is some performance / stability improvement from Access 97 to 2000, but 
not nearly as much as from
either to MSDE / SQL Server.

A separate part of Access 2000 is the Access project (.ADP file), which acts as a 
front-end to a SQL Server
database. Access 2000 also includes MSDE, which is a limited, free version of sql 
server 7 (limited to total of 2
GB, and no enterprise manager; but otherwise same engine).
