Re: Linux and MsAccess

I think if you are on linux, you should use a real database (like mysql). Sorry I can't give you a better response than that, but I'm just not sure it's plausible.

Re: Linux and MsAccess

Try install an ODBC driver for Linux

Then you can install an access connector and make a connection directly to the .mdb file through the odbc driver (a process in your system).

It isn't easy. Needs a lot of conf...

Have you tried use it with OpenOffice?

Hope it helps.
