2. Carefully study the Decision Tree Guide in the article to determine the necessary drivers for your environment, this depends on:
   • The version of ArcGIS Pro
   • The version of Microsoft Office on the machine: 32- or 64-bit
   • The method used to install Office, .MSI or Click to run

Note:
Office 2013 and earlier are only .MSI installations.

3. Install the required driver(s) for the environment in use. This may include:
   • Installing Microsoft Access Database 2016 Redistributable Driver: 32- or 64-bit
   • Installing Microsoft .NET Desktop Runtime Installer 6.0.5 or later: 32- or 64-bit
