Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider

I am accessing Data from Excel 2007 that needs the above mentioned provider.

My question is that What minimum Office 2007 components will suffice to install the Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider on system, or did microsoft release any MDAC like compnents to install this.

Thanks in advance...

Hi Atul

This forum is dedicated to the VSTO technology. Your question doesn't fall under that category, so you're less likely to get an answer here than in a group dedicated to Office applications. Your best bet is probably the access programming newsgroup. Many of the regulars there have been involved in the Access 2007 beta testing and are familiar with the OLE DB provider. They'll probably know something about whether it's to be included in MDAC, or how to best install it. Note that, since Office 2007 is still in beta, the final version of the provider may not yet be available separately, but this could change later.

I'm not certain that this is the right forum for your question. This forum is for .NET Framework setup issues.

Can you describe in greater detail what you're trying to do It seems like you're trying to pull data from Access into Excel. Is that right

Have you tried contacting the Excel, Access, or Office technical support forums

I am accessing from Excel 2007 but the provider name is Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB Provider.
