Connect to MDB - Civil 3D 2014

I'm trying to connect to an MDB file and I'm not quite sure where to begin. I've read posts about ESRI MDB files. I'm not sure if that's what I have or if it's formatted differently. I've tried following this link but when I click ADD my only option is for SQL server. I don't see anything for MDB. HELP!!!

where is that MDB file located?
Is it on the Server?
Or is it local?

It's local. Or I could put it on a network drive. Whichever is easiest.

see attached
you most likely want to use option one....
unless it on a server....in which case you will want to use dataconnect through Map Taskpane <MAPWSPACE>
and you will need log-in credentials...and other particulars of the data store

What do you mean "option 1"? User DSN?
When I click ADD this is what I get. I don't have an option for MDB although it shows on the first tab.

Do you know if the driver(s) are located in the install MSI? Or is this strictly a Windows thang?
