Yeah, I thought about that but because I use the Jet database for a
couple of key features, I have to include that.  That thing is massive. 
There are like 22 system files.  Ideally, there would be some kind of
install program which would start up, find out what version the user has
(if at all), and then downloads as nessasary.  I wish I knew more C.  

Has anyone had trouble downloading it?  What are some reactions?  I need
input here people :)
