INFO: Index Server and Site Server OLEDB Providers with SQL 7.0
This article was previously published under Q196295
SQL Server 7.0 Installs OLED DB providers for Microsoft Index Server and
Site Server. However, you will not be able to directly use the providers
from a consumer such as ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) to perform a query
without first installing Index Server or Site Server on the same machine.
After installing SQL Server 7.0 with a custom install and Full-text search
option, you will see entries for OLED DB providers for Microsoft Index
Server and Site Server in OLE DB Data Link dialog box. When using the
Microsoft DataLink dialog box, you will find the following new entries:
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Microsoft Index Server
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Microsoft Site Server Search
However, you will not be able to directly use the providers from a consumer
such as ADO to perform a query without first installing Index Server or
Site Server on the same machine. SQL Server 7.0 does not install Index
Server or Site Server.
You will need to install Index Server on the same machine as SQL Server 7.0
to perform distributed queries using Index Server provider. Index Server
2.0 can be installed from NT Option Pack 4.0
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Index Server 2.0
- Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Site Server 3.0

didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
