Program or process to read MS Access .mdb w/ macro?

gub · 12-17-2007, 03:04 PM

I have a large database w/ macro menu etc. done with MS Access. I have Access 2007 on a Windows partition, someone who wants to be able to have at least read access to the .mdb, not just the data, the macro too, and a problem; there doesn't seem to be an export feature in Access, and no way to import into OOo Base on my OpenSuse 10.3 system, and kexi, and mdbtools-gui only allow access to data. Is there a linux way to go, without having to purchase a new copy of Crossover and MS Office?

I think it would better to run Windows Access on this computer and mysql on another. Then you can use an odbc connector to the access table and import the access database to mysql.
