Thanks. What I'm still not sure on is the provider to use in the connection
string.
e.g I currently have
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=C:\mydb.mdb;Mode=ReadWrite|Share Deny None;Persist Security
Info=False

What drives can I rely on to use with MDAC. I only chose
Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0 cause it was in my list when i built the connection
string.

The client only needs to install the latest Microsoft Data Access Components
(MDAC) which is actually installed with IE 5.x anyway.  Otherwise you can
just download the +- 7MB installation from www.microsoft.com/data - the file
is called mdac_typ.exe of which a version actually comes on the D5 cd.
