SUMMARY
The Microsoft Data Access SDK 2.1 update does not include all of the needed Visual C++ support files for the Microsoft Jet OLE DB Provider 4.0. This patch includes all of the needed header files, .lib files, and .idl files for the Jet OLE DB Provider 4.0.
NOTE: The Microsoft Jet OLE DB Provider 4.0 is installed by the MDAC 2.1 GA Redistribution Setup executable, which is available for download from the following web location:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/dataaccess
NOTE: Microsoft Data Access SDK 2.5 (which has been included with Platform SDK) comes with all these files. Do not apply this patch if using DA SDK 2.5.

Description Of Files Included in JetVC.exe
| Jetoledb.h | Header file containing the interface definitions for the IDBUserAttributes, IIdle, and IJetCompact Jet extended OLE DB interfaces. |
| Jetoledb.idl | IDL file for the Jet OLE DB Provider 4.0 Jet extended interfaces. |
| Idlmulti.h | A special header file referenced by Jetoledb.idl. |
| Jetoledb.lib | Library file containing the IIDs for the extended Jet OLE DB interfaces. |
| Msjetoledb.h | The main Jet OLE DB Provider 4.0 header file. |
Directions for Use of Jet OLE DB Support Files in Visual C++
If you are using just the core OLE DB interfaces with the Jet Provider, you need to include only Msjetoledb.h in your project.
If you are using one or more of the Jet extended OLE DB interfaces (IDBUserAttributes, IIdle, or IJetCompact), you need to include Jetoledb.h as well as link your project with the Jetoledb.lib file.
If you want to use the Jetoledb.idl file with your project, you also need to include Idlmulti.h in your project. Also note that Jetoledb.idl references the Oledb.idl file installed by the Microsoft Data Access SDK 2.1. The Oledb.idl file is installed under the MDACSDK\unsupported\idl folder. Note that Oledb.idl also references other .idl files in the same folder, so for best results you should append the MDACSDK\unsupported\idl folder to your project include folders if you are using Jetoledb.idl.
