Yes,

Still vbajet32.dll still refuses to work with the current AVTS 3.6.1
release.  It was only after we installed the mdac drivers that the AVTS
could download an election.

There's been some confusion as to which version of win98 they have in
Vancouver.  It would probably be prudent to get Vancouver a new AVTS with
win98 asap so they can reproduce what is shipping out of McKinney.

apparently Jeff Hintz is getting a new AVTS with win98 Monday-Tuesday?
Perhaps he can go through the install with the new 3.6.1.
