Access Error when running windows program

I have a windows form application that uses microsoft access for the database on the backend.

When I run that application I get an error that says access is not installed on the computer. I thought that if I included the reference that it will be included with what I release so the user would not have to have access installed.

How do I include the Access Runtime to be开发者_StackOverflow社区 distributed/installed when my application is installed?

Have you tried downloading the latest MDAC release, if your application is only connecting to an Access DataStore, the local machine requires the drivers to make the connection.

I am going to use the MS Access Runtime or direct the user to download a trial version of MS Office.

MS Access Runtime 2007

I tried it out and the app works. If their is a better option I would like to know.

Microsoft provides instructions for how to deploy an Access Runtime Application. Is there something about those that doesn't fit your scenario?
