I have a .WDB file that a friend gave me. I am trying to bring it into Access, so that I can create a application for him, but I can not find a way to open or import from the file.

Are their any tools out there for this or am I going to have to install MS Works? I have it, just didn't want to install for this one time use.

Thanks in advance...

Ever notice that by the time that you realize that you ran a truncate script on the wrong instance, it is too late to stop it?
 
Terry: Just open the file in YOUR Works program, save it as Excel, import into Access. If you can't do it, just email it to me and I'll get it into Excel for you.

Thanks for the offer Dream. I went home today and installed works just so I could do it. Done in thirty seconds once I installed Works.

Thanks...
