Does deployment machine need MS ACCESS?

Does a VB.NET application that uses an Access mdb file (database) require that the deployment machine have MS Access?

I believe the answer to be NO, although you will need to supply the Access Object Library to your users.

Be sure they got framework and MDAC 2.6 or higher
