This is a very good suggestion and will proof that Java and Access don't mix. BTDT The best solution for this problem I have found (been given) is the use of DBTools on top of MySQL. Install MySQL locally and add DBTools (www.dbtools.com.br). This gives you an interface with all the Access like database access. You an even import your Access database (data and/or structure). Get MySQL on mysql.org. You can find some JDBC drivers there too.
Don't use ODBC in combination with JDBC. ODBC is written in C or C++ and is a bad combination with Java, performance wise. This is my € 0.02 worth of advice ;-).
