I see that there's no support for Access 2019. I get the following error while connecting to the 2019 DB.
java.io.IOException: Unsupported newer version: 6

Is there a support for 2019 planned soon?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
how did you get a database with this version? i tried running ms access 2019 and the database version only gave me the option of "2007-2016". there was no option for a 2019 database version?

right, so i think i finally figured out what this is. there is not really any info online about a new access database version. however, i finally found through the office 365 release notes that they recently added a new data type, an enhanced date time value. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/using-the-date-time-extended-data-type-708c32da-a052-4cc2-9850-9851042e0024. it is only available in the online subscription version of access. i realized that i can't easily add support for the new version without an instance of the db to play with.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
at minimum, i need an empty instance of a db in order to add any support to jackcess.
in order to support the new date time type, i'd also need an instance of the db with a table using the new field type with some values in it (with ascending and descending indexes on those fields).
if you could create those and attach them here (or send them to me directly), that would be fantastic.

i managed to get my hands on some new db instances so i was able to implement support for 2019 dbs. it's in trunk now and will be in the 4.0.1 release.

i wasn't aware there was a new database version out there.
i can't find much indication that there is a new database version and what changes it includes.

Thanks James. Following are the links which I could find info related to the latest version
What's New
2019 vs 2016
yeah, i've seen similar stuff. nothing really indicates any changes which would actually affect the database format.
it's a simple fix to support all the current features in a new version though, so i can get that out pretty easily.
how did you get a database with this version? i tried running ms access 2019 and the database version only gave me the option of "2007-2016". there was no option for a 2019 database version?
I am using office 365 subscription.

Thank you for the investigation. Let me also check if it's possible to add a guest to a sample Access file. Will that help you?

2019 support is now available in the 4.0.1 release. it includes support for the new extended date/time type.
Thank you @jahlborn. Apologies for the late reply.
Sure. Thanks, James
