I run a database on MSDE on a 2000 server.

I run various desktops, 98, 2000, xp that can all connect and use the database.

I have one pc that has windows ME and cannot connect to the database (even though I can ping the server from it etc).

I am thinking that it is likely that the ME pc does not have the correct version of MDAC installed.

Which version of MDAC do I need in order to connect to an MSDE database from a workstation pc?

thank you

Jon
