Question : Running .mdb fils without Access installed

My program read from and write to an Access database. But now I need my program to run on an instance of Windows that has no Access installed.

So can my program cummunicate with an .mdb file without Access installed? If so, is there any setup needed for that handshake to take place? How does ODBC fit into this?

I'veneer run my program on a PC with no Access, and was never realy sure.

Thnks,

Answer : Running .mdb fils without Access installed

you should know "your" program and if you're using access-delivers-api's or any other (ADO_?) methods.
If you do need access...then have a look for Access Runtime, which would allow the client to use a .mdb-file with the full ms access installation
