Importing access database (.mdb) to mysql

Hi

I have a complete database which is written in access and which I would to convert to mysql.

In my program I could like to use JDBC driver to integrate with mysql database.

Does anyone know how this can be accomplished

    I'm not sure if I fully understand your question, but Access can only operate through ODBC, although you can use JDBC with ODBC if, for example, you have a Java app. You didn't really indicate what you're using to develop the app although I assume it's a .NET desktop or web app.

    On the other hand, if you just want to export the data from Access to MySQL you can create linked tables in Access to corresponding tables in MySQL using ODBC (File..Get External Data...Link Tables...Files of Type -> ODBC Databases()). After you have created linked Access tables to MySQL tables you can write queries in Access to export the data.
