Ah, I see.  I'm not sure.  I did a quick search on Google (nifty search
engine, BTW) on "JET database linux", and the closest I got was a utility
from IBM that converts JET databases to DB2, but I'm pretty sure that
isn't it.  I will admit, however, that I didn't check out all the results;
only about the first 30 or so of over 2200.  A search of the Microsoft
site didn't turn up anything, except a listing of the platforms supporting
JET, which were Intel and Alpha Windows.

Offhand, I can't think of how you could have the MS Access engine already
running on your Linux system, unless he was referring to using Star Office
on Win32 systems.  Or maybe if you have it running via WABI?
