Excuse me but I should clarify something. The MDAX they would like to install is 2.1.2 or higher. They've also stated that if I were to use the 2.5 version of MDAC I would also need to install Jet40SP3_Comp.exe.
Or I could just tell them I need to migrate all the servers to 2000. I would love to do that. > -----Original Message----- > From: Stidley, Joel [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Thursday, March 14, 2002 1:47 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: MDAC on Exchange > > This may be flawed reasoning, but the version of MDAC that ships with > and is installed with Windows 2000 is 2.5.
