Well, we'll need a bit more detail as to what the situation is. i.e. what's installed and what's not.




In general, you will probably have to install either the 2007 ACE Engine redistributable or the 2010 one depending on whether you are working in 32 or 64 bit.




The ACE components are no longer available unless you install them.

But you could use the 2010 which is still available as long as you can change the provider string (A2010 is 14, A2007 was 12).

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.

Software

Microsoft SQL Server is a suite of relational database management system (RDBMS) products providing multi-user database access functionality.SQL Server is available in multiple versions, typically identified by release year, and versions are subdivided into editions to distinguish between product functionality.
