Why do you want to view the database in Access? Unless you're really familiar with Access, it won't make much sense to you - it's a bunch of tables that are all interconnected and have special "codes" to designate some of the stuff that you see in Legacy, such as tags, living flags, etc.
Nor should you make any edits to the database in Access unless you *really* know what you're doing or you could make a mess of things! The Legacy interface puts it all together in a way that you can view and understand the data.
