If you obtain the Jet 4.0 SP8 download for computers that are running Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 you will also recieve the ODBC Desktop Driver Pack drivers. These drivers are included with the Windows 2000, Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. The ODBC Desktop Driver Pack drivers includes following files:

   
   File Name          Version          Size
   ------------------------------------------
   Odbcji32.dll       4.0.6205.0       60,224
   Odbcjt32.dll       4.0.6205.0      285,224
   Oddbse32.dll       4.0.6205.0       27,464
   Odexl32.dll        4.0.6205.0       27,464

   Odtext32.dll       4.0.6205.0       27,464

Note: The Jet 4.0 SP8 download for computers running Microsoft Windows 95, Microsoft Windows 98 and Microsoft Windows NT version 4.0 does includes the ODBC Desktop Driver Pack drivers but does not completely install them. In order for the ODBC drivers to be correctly registered on your computer, you also need to install Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.6 or later. MDAC does not include these driver files, but it includes the core ODBC DLLs that are required to install and use the drivers. You must install MDAC after Jet 4.0 SP8 for it to correctly register these files.
Note The file size may vary slightly. The file size depends on the version of Windows that you run. The file version does not change.

If you plan to use Jet Replication Manager with Jet 4.0 SP7 or later and you do not have Mstran40.exe version 4.0.6508.0, you must also download and install Jet4Repl.exe.

• Performance problems occurred when certain pass-through queries were run.
• Microsoft Access unexpectedly quit when you tried to upsize a database where the tables contained triggers.
  
  Note This service pack prevents Access from quitting. It does not permit you to upsize tables with triggers.
• Invalid argument error message occurred when you tried to create a linked table by using DAO code after the installation of Jet 4.0 SP7.
• An access violation occurred when you ran certain queries that used linked Paradox tables.
• Oracle integer field appeared as double in Access.
• When you tried to create links to dBase files, you received an access violation or nothing occurred. That is, no link was created, and you did not receive an error message.
• When you refreshed a linked table, you were prompted to select a DSN even though you were still using the same DSN, and all the connection information was correct.
