+ <question>Does Jackcess provide a JDBC driver for Microsoft Access databases?</question>
+ <answer>
+ Unfortunately, no. The Jackcess API is a direct implementation of the
+ features available for interacting with an Access database. There is
+ currently no implementation of the JDBC API included with the Jackcess
+ library. While this library would be a great foundation for a JDBC
+ driver, implementing the JDBC API is currently outside the scope of
+ this project. There have been a few attempts to use Jackcess to build
+ JDBC drivers for Access databases, but none of the projects seem to
+ have progressed very far before becoming inactive.
