Using .mdb files does not require Microsoft Access - it's merely a development environment for Jet databases. To distribute Jet databases, you must install the Jet runtime, which you can download from http://www.microsoft.com/data[^]. This is most often installed already on client machines. Note that Jet is not currently installed with MDAC (there were prior to 2.6). For information about downloading the Jet runtime, see KB article Q239114[^].

The MSDE - while providing a true RDBMS - can be more difficult to deploy. The MSDE - like SQL Server, of which many components are shared - can only be installed for 16 instances, including those instances that are SQL Server. In the MSDE downloads, there are 16 MSIs (Windows Installer Databases). Most applications will pick one and stick with it. Each one contains a different ProductCode that you can use for upgrades (such as SP3, which I think is part of the base MSDE install now). Some applications - such as ours - will even distribute all 16 MSIs and use a boostrap that will determine which one should be used (in case another product has already installed another instance using the MSI that we might've picked). This definitely adds to the complication. You could always use that existing instance and attack your databases, but then you have two or more products tied together with a single instance that might lead to additional problems (like if the other product upgrades the master table and breaks some of your functionality).

You can read more about MSDE deployment on the MSDE site at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde[^], as well as download it and its service packs. Note that VS.NET also includes the MSDE set (a single instance named VSdotNET).
