Beginning with Windows 2000 Professional Service Pack# 3 and higher, MDAC
should have been already bundled with the Operating System. Especially with
Windows XP, you cannot install MDAC on it because it is now part of the OS.

For Windows 9x, it is very easy to install MDAC, approx. 5.5 MB in size. If
your W9x clients do not want to install it and their MSIE verion is 5.x or
higher, some MDAC components are also already bundled with IE 5.x or higher.
But be sure, just tell them to install it if your application cannoit
contact your database server or local MS/Access database.
