I am making an application that at first (for testing reasons) will be 
used on one machine. But, it is planned that as time goes, will be used 
on multiple machine. I am using ADO (Access *.mdb) right now (or trying 
to) I am more familiar with SQL, but my concern is that I want something 
that is easy for someone to setup. So I could hand a disk to someone and 
  they can install it without any trouble.
I have learned that even with ADO I still need to setup an ODBC. But 
least that is not too cumbersome. What other options do I have?

I would like: Ease of installation, access speed (for future) and price 
is an issue (ex. I don't want to have everyone buy an Oracle license or 
software just to run this simple application).

Thanks,
David Barnes
