I'm assuming you're using windows if you are running MS Access.
The database used by Slimserver is SQLlite 3.

Download the Windows ODBC driver here
http://www.ch-werner.de/sqliteodbc/sqliteodbc-win32-0.64.zip

and install it on your system. It will install 3 drivers, i.e.
SQLLite3,SQLLite2 & SQLLite 2 UDF

Then create an ODBC DSN called "SlimDB" using the SQLlite 3 driver
pointing at this file C:\Program
Files\SlimServer\server\Cache\slimserversql.db

Once this is done, you can create a new Db in MSAccess
Then do File->Get External Data->Import
In the file selector, change "Files of Type" to ODBC Databases, and
choose the SlimDb DSN you created. You should then be able to import
all the tables from the Slimserver Db.

By the way. Shut down the Slimserver while doing this as I think
SQLlite only support Db level locking, so you'll probably get errors if
the database is in use by any other app while you try the import.

I've also imported into SQL server and looked at using indexes etc on
the tables, but my perl isn't up to the conversion work required.
