Wrong MDAC version error when running client on Windows Vista (dbexpsda.dll version 3.0.3.0)

I have a client running SQL Server 2000 on a Windows Server 2003 machine.

My client application is installed on a Windows Vista machine. I'm currently using dbexpsda.dll version 3.0.3.0. When I try connecting, I get the error invalid MDAC Version and it says I need to get the latest version of MDAC. Now Windows Vista no longer uses MDAC. Does the latest version of dbexpress (version 4) driver support Windows DAC or is there a way around this?

You should download the last build of DbxSda 3 (3.20.10). It supports Windows Vista. This fix has been included in DbxSda 4 as well.
