I thought that mdbtools was interesting, but I have never tried it. Tell me, what do you think of it? One way that you could provide access to anyone is to setup an X server on the Windows machines (you can do it for free with Cygwin). You could then use ssh to have all your users log into the Linux box and run mdbtools. This way it won't matter if your running Windows/Linux/Unix everyone could access the database and you wouldn't have to deal with MS trying to convert it to another format. Jesse
