|
Hi
I have downloaded NeoOffice and it appears to be working OK. The only problem is with Microsoft Access. The PC uses Microsoft Office 2003 and I cannot transfer my database files to this macbook pro. Everything else appears to be working just fine. Any answers please?
Regards

Consult our wiki for this.
There is also a quite new spanish project about converting mdb tables to odb tables, but don't know if it compiles on mac machines.

Yes, right now if you're trying to import access data you're kind of up s**t creek. mdbtools is way out of date and doesn't work on OS X yet.
Your best bet is to see if you can export your data in CSV or dBase format from Access; you should then be able to set those up as data sources for Base.
