You can also try to export the DB records into CSV (Comma Separated Values)
then import into MySQL. Though this might be a lowlevel method but so far,
this has worked seamlessly. CSVs can be manipulated/read directly either
through PHP, SQL(POSIX,ANSI,etc), or any scripting language since CSVs are
just plain text files.

Thought this might be an area than you can also look into should direct
migration using tools from Access to MySQL will be a pain for you.

I dunno if the DB gurus will agree but just my one cent.

Now, back to my review :)

it was in my plan to start from scratch, but i just cant do that, the
company has an existing database in MS Access and they want to make it
online, and they where also planning to transfer to MySQL. Since they have
an existing database(with more than 100k rows), I just need to convert it..
:D
