YUP! that did it!

ONLY the x86(32bit) version of LibreOffice would/could open
the MS Access DataBase File... :D ^_^ :(

Tested LO v5.3.3.2 in Administrative Install(loose file) mode...

ahh.. That's too bad :( :/ 
VideoLAN(ie  VLC Media Player) creates archive versions for portable and
debugging
purposes...

ok so Admin install does loose files.. ok that works...
I created a .cmd bath file so I can make it quicker next time if I am testing a
newer version like a beta/nightly...

of to test now.. will post back in a sec.

There are no simple ziP/archive executables to my knowledge, unless you build a
working application directory yourself from the source code.

If you want to install in parallel, this is possible:

ooh... O_o
can you guys/devs create a functional(directory structured) archived version of
LO 32bit so I can test and see if my Database file opens/access then?

As I put in https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=97579#c16
"
I noticed this link:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13255
"Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable"

which proposes 32 and 64 bits drivers.
System requirements don't indicate the need to have MSOffice installed (but
perhaps it's implicit).

I checked the Daily(Alpha) builds server and  the pre-release server..
and found NOTHING but .msi installers :( >_>

you devs need to add archived versions for loose testing so one is not forced
to install over a stable release...

yeah.. maybe.. That's sounds like it could be the reason...

do u guys have a archived/non-installer version of LO(32bit) I could try out?
maybe it would work.. I install by default 64bit these days as I run 
Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 x64

@Joseph : did you look at bug 97579 ? In particular, the comments I referred to
? Those comments indicate that it used to be possible to read mdb files when
LibreOffice was a 32bit application running on a 32bit DAC/JetDB driver stack.
Recent versions of LibreOffice are 64bit, and this appears, at least in some
cases, to be problematic.
