    what do i need in order for a client to view an access database?

    I have a program that connects to an access database. Say my client doesn't have access installed or any necessary components. I created the program in vb6, what does the client need in order for the program to work?

    Sue Visual Studio Installer to pacjkage your application. It will analyze and include all necessary files... and to answer what you may ask next, Access need not be installed on the users system inorder for this to work...
