If you are using Windows (TM), yes, mostly.  If you are using Linux,
maybe.  If you are using Sun Solaris or Mac OS X, no.  This is because
Windows (especially XP and 2003 server) has the facilities built in to
handle the Access file format through MDAC.  Some Linux distributions
have MS Access file handlers built in.  This is not true for Sun Solaris
(to my knowledge) and the MS Access file driver(s) have not been built
for the Mac.
