RE: [MS_AccessPros] Re: Convert old data files to Access

 

Jane-

Research on the web implies that those might be Borland Delphi files. I think
Access 97 was the last version to distribute a Btrieve converter, but that
probably won't work with this. You might try:

http://www.flexquarters.com/flexodbc.htm

That's an ODBC driver for Delphi – you'll need to install it and then build a
DSN to use the driver and point to your files so you can link them or import
them into an Access database.

Jane,

I may be mistaken but I think Access 2.0 could read btrieve files. Perhaps one
of the experts can chime in.
