Can anyone help me with converting data after it has been imported to Access 2003? I am exporting data from Autodesk Revit 8.1 (similar to AutoCAD) .......ODBC export uses metric units only. Any suggestion on converting the entire database after the fact?

Help will be much appreciated!!

Hi,

There are lots of places to find conversion factors on the web.

Once you have the correct factor for each field you need to convert, you can create some queries that perform the necessary conversion arithmetic.
