SUMMARY
=======

Visual Basic 5.0 Books online describes using the Exchange IISAM driver for Jet
3.5. This documentation implies that this driver ships with Visual Basic 5.0,
but it does not.

This article describes how to obtain this driver from two locations.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The following Visual Basic 5.0 Books online topics describe using the Exchange
IISAM for Microsoft Jet 3.5:

 Guide to Data Access Objects
   Accessing External Data
     Working with Microsoft Exchange

 Visual Basic Help
   Additional Information
     Other Help Files
       Microsoft Jet SQL Reference
         Microsoft Registry Settings for External Data Sources
           Initializing the Microsoft Exchange Data Source Driver

The documentation does not state that the driver ships with Visual Basic 5.0, but
its inclusion implies that it does.

The driver can be found in the following locations:

- On the World Wide Web:
  http://www.microsoft.com//accessdev/articles/exe/wzmapi80.exe This is a
  self-extracting, self-installing EXE. It also installs two Microsoft Access
  Wizards for use with that product.

- On the Office Pro 97 or Microsoft Access 97 CD-ROMs in the \ValuPack\DataAcc
  folder. Run DataAcc.exe to install. This also installs Paradox and Lotus
  IISAM drivers.
