Jet Version

Does anyone have code to retrieve the version of Jet currently in use by an
Access database please?

Also, I have been reading some scary stuff about sandbox in 2003. Does
anyone have any general advice on how to design Access databases which don't
transgress the sandbox rules?

If you mean the Jet SP version what I've done is use the various API calls available
and am checking the version number and date/time of a crucial dll, msjetxx.dll, to
ensure it matches what I have on my system. See the tips page at my website for more
details including sample code: Verify Appropriate Jet Service Pack is installed

<shudder> Haven't done enough research yet on the various problems.
