ADT2: Setup Wizard OLE Default Dependent on MSARN200 Choice

When you are running the Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit (ADT) Setup Wizard, the OLE 2.01 (or OLE 2.02 if you have installed the Microsoft Access version 2.0 Service Pack) option is selected by default only if you select the Run With MSARN200 check box in the Add File dialog box.

If you do not choose to include the Microsoft Access run-time executable file MSARN200.EXE with your custom application, users of your application will need to have a retail version of Microsoft Access to run your application. The retail version of Microsoft Access includes the OLE dynamic-link library (DLL) files; therefore, they do not need to be included by the Setup Wizard in your custom application's Setup.

If you do choose to include the run-time executable file with your custom application, the Setup Wizard will generate a warning if you choose not to include the OLE files. If you choose OK in response to this warning, a flag is set to prevent future warnings about the OLE files. This flag is saved with your template.
