need database suggestion for *.mdb files
I just received an attachment that was saved as an Access db. Can anyone suggest an application to deal with this file. I'm not familiar enough with freebsd's database options to know if any of them read .mdb files. Thanks -- Kirk R.

Of course, that was back when I had access to a Windows box on co-op :) Now I'd have to seek other means... Just a thought.
