[Mono-list] Using System.Data.OleDb with Mono on Linux

[Paddy Joy]

Hi,

I'm trying to get some code running that reads an access database. I 
read in another thread that System.Data.OleDb is un-maintained and 
requires libgda. So I have install mdbtools and compiled libgda with the 
mdb provider. Now I have gda-sharp.dll but when I try and create an 
oleDbInsertCommand1; with the code

private System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand oleDbInsertCommand1;
this.oleDbInsertCommand1 = new System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand();

I get an error that Mono can't find gda-2.dll, does anyone know what 
package contains gda-2.dll?

Thanks,
Paddy
