MS Access Versions supported by UCanAccess

[bilaloumehdi]

Hello @spannm , I would like to ask about the support of MS access versions later than 2016. I saw that this not supported yet in
https://ucanaccess.sourceforge.net/site.html. Could you please confirm that and is there will be a next version that supports newer versions ?

Microsoft Access databases, created using the Microsoft Access desktop application, with *.accdb extension are based on the so-called ACE format ("Access Connectivity Engine") and are forward- as well as backward-compatible between Access versions 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2021 and so forth.

New Access versions may introduce new Access features. If a database makes use of such new feature, a field in the database file's binary header is set to indicate the minimum Access/ACE version required to fully support that particular database.

I am assuming that all ACE-based database files are supported by recent versions of UCanAccess and Jackcess.

Should you encounter an unsupported database file please file a bug report.
