ODBC and Access

[Anon]

Please Help!:

I'm trying to configure unixODBC for an access mdb file. The unixODBC maual was rather worthless. I'm running redhat 7.1.

Hi Andy,
Sorry this wont help, but I had exactly the same experience, and got horribly confused with the whole thing. In the end it was easier and much more productive to convert the Access to a local PostgresQL database running on the server that had Apache and PHP. I too was running RH7
Good luck.

Chris

BTW : What out for "memo" feild in Access. If they have CR's in them, it causes a whole heap of trouble.

Now for the obvious question:

How do you convert the Access dbm to a local PostgresQL database?

(I successfully installed PostgresQL, I think)
