When creating a .NET deployment project you can add merge modules for common functions. Where do you obtain merge modules for MS products like Jet 4.0, MDAC 2.7 or Access 2003? I have searched the MS download sites and can only find a Merge Module for Visual Studio 6. Access 2003 has an installer (MSI module) that I can invoke but a merge module will be easier. While MDAC 2.7 is on all XP machines some applications will be running on 2000 machines and will need to have the MDAC updated. As far as I can find on the MSDN sites MS' recommendation is to check for MDAC 2.7 and if it is not found tell the user to go and install it! Talk about user un-friendly! So I'm looking for a merge module (or in worst cases a MSI) that I can include in the deployment project.
 
You can get some merge modules from the following website. If you search
the web, you will also find others available on various websites...
