We currently have a very small database in MS Access 2003.
Our company would like to migrate all data to MySQL.

Currently, we are having a hard time finding out, how to get our data out of Access in the first place.

Does anyone know how to perform one of the following or give us any other hint?

1) Export data to CSV-File

2) Generate:
a) CREATE TABLE statement
b) INSERT INTO... VALUES

(for an existing table with a few rows)

Any help at all greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Access to MySQL is a small program that will convert Microsoft Access Databases to MySQL.

Please remember to take a back up of the Access Database before you start, incase it does not go well.



Oh and depending on the version of access your using depends on where the export functions sit on the menu.



If you can let me know your version I can point you in the right direction for exporting.
