Hi :)
I am not sure how that link is supposed to help Donald with his question?  
Access uses something called Jet and something called MDAC?  How can Donald 
find out which version of Jet is being used in their Access?  Would finding out 
even be relevant to Donald's question, or would it only help with that 
unhelpful page?


Hi Tom

The page lists the downloads for the data drivers needed to connect to
an Access database - from anything other then Access, Base included, on
a Windows OS.

They don't ship with Windows and therefore the user needs to go get
them.

Once installed the questioner should be able to connect following the
instructions in the help file.

Downloaded LO last week and all is fine so far with Write and Calc. But when I 
try to connect to an Access DB. I get an 'unable to connect, maybe necessary 
data provider is not installed'. What data provider would I need and where can 
I download it? TIA

If I not in a mistake, the problem is derivated because is a regressión in 3.4 version and the SDBC drivers to connect with diferent MS access version, weren't shipped with LibreOffice 3.4. I reported a bug about this regression.

This is solved in 3.5, which in other side seems to will be a very good version.
