   TITLE     : How to Obtain Microsoft Support Files from Online Services

The following is an abbreviated list from Odbc35c.xls. This table does not indicate where the files should be installed to, nor how. With ODBC version 3.5, the OLE DB Provider for ODBC is now a required core component of ODBC and must be installed in the correct location.

Requirements of the OLE DB Components

In addition, OLE DB requires all the updated OLE Automation files. Here are the four OLE Automation files:

   Oleaut32.dll
   Olepro32.dll
   Asycfilt.dll
   Stdole2.tlb

These files must stay synchronized and you cannot distribute just one file without the others, because unexpected behavior will occur on your computer.
