What is this error message "ADO could not find the specified provider" I wrote a VB program that uses Access for the database. The program runs find on my computer but when I package it and install it on another computer I get this message. I am running it on a network and the database is on the server.

You are distributing the wrong version (MDAC 2.1) of the MDAC most likely

If you are using a MS Access 97 database, then you need to distribute MDAC 2.0. MDAC 2.1 is for Access 2000 databases

Download MDAC 2.0 @ www.microsoft.com/data (http://www.microsoft.com/data)
