I've been building a VB# 2008 WPF/xaml based program for a friend. The DB requirements are not great but a DB with two tables was necessary.

I used Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 (*accdb) as my provider and now I discover the ACE driver has to be registerd on every personal computer running my program. Ok, I was naive and am guilty of poor advance planning.

Will the deployment program automatically register the driver or must I run Accessdatabaseengine.exe on each personal computer using my program? Or, should I revert to the older form of Access *.mdb database?

Thanks in advance for the help.
