It appears that you need to install the .Net framework. OLE DB as such
has nothing to do with .Net, but comes with the MDAC. The System.Data.Oledb
namespace is a component of the .Net Framework that uses OLE DB.
If you have more questions about the .Net Framework, try
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.dotnet.

MDAC 2.8 comes with SQL 2003. Windows XP has MDAC 2.7.
