The downloadable driver is not the latest and greatest, there is a CWS being worked on by Fridrich Strba to put this into the regular builds. [1] is a status page for this project. I hope I'll be able to put preliminary builds of this CWS online next week, to get some feedback. In this case, you can use those installations to copy the tables from an MDB file.
