be careful though about field names. If while transforming an error occurs it won't stop. The only way to see that will be only software's error log. You should first make a copy of access file and check there carefully all the field names. Then transform it into mySQL and play with column properties. Who usually makes access databases has all the fields f...ed up. So be aware: it is not like: click-a-button-and-it's-done, you'll have restructure lot's of things over there. But there's no easier way to do it. And DBtools is easy enough to use. (sometimes it crashes, but still is OK) This is what I am playing with whole this week.
