Alright. What we really need here is a good byte-level programmer. In
a cursory Google lookup, I found that the data is stored in the SHAPE
column of the Geodatabase. The data itself is stored as a series of 4
byte integers for better performance and compression. The
GDB_SpatialRef table provides the Z and M coordinate precision factors
necessary for converting the values into real-world coordinates as well
as the Coordinate System information. A MIF /MID text file seems like
it would be a reasonable logical choice for output... So who is ready
to volunteer?

Hi bill..
Have you tried this..
http://www.webmapit.com.br/index.php?option=com_remository&Itemid=72&func=fileinfo&filecatid=2&parent=category&lang=en
text from the website:
*"mdb2shapefile* is a simple VB program I wrote in 2003 for exporting
MS Access data to ShapeFile tables(.DBF files).
/Status/: I do not play VB anymore, so it's stopped since 2003. If you
need any changes, feel free to do it! It's GPL!
/How it works/: select an Access table and a DBF folder. Then, you
must define links between the table and click EXPORT button. The
program will create a temporary DBF backup, a new DBF containing the
new fields(from Access) e then it will perform a loop to export data.
/Who need this program/: if you need to handle data related to
ShapeFiles and don't have tools - such as ESRI ArcView(c) - to link
data and shapefiles, then maybe this could help you a little.*"
I sure hope this is what your looking for.
Eric
