I need to import an interbase (.gdb) database into access or convert it to a .mdb. Is there anyway to accomplish this? Is there as conversion utility?

Thanks, Dave
 
No help, that was my post months ago.

I need I need to find a utility to do so.

I am not a high level database person. I need specifics.

Can you use the Easysoft ODBC driver for Interbase? If you have access to this odbc driver, you can import the data.


I import from Interbase to sql-server, the same can be done for Access.

There is no utility I know of that is a one-click solution that will convert all interbase tables to an Access .mdb

Doing it via odbc is not a complex solution, it should work with minimal steps.

Thanks Jim: I've actually been trying to register on their site to get a download of that ODBC driver but I am still awaiting a confirmation email.
