Interesting, I was toying with this exact same thing the other day, except with an added spin:
In access, the field information is shown as follows when you create/edit fields in a table: [field name] [data type] [description of field] I want to extract table information, including the description fields of the fields in the table design field. I often have to port overflowing access databases to something more suitable like mysql, and enhance the data structure along the way. Thoughts anyone? I am going to try and poke around in an access DB with crystal reports to see if it can show the info like I need it.
