There is no direct way of importing Access files into FileMaker, not vice versa, as far as I now. If this is a one-time only thing, you could just do an excel, tab or other export. If you need to update records on a regular basis, you should probably look into using ODBC, with FileMaker Pro acting as the ODBC host.
