If you don't want to install *any* software, you're probably out of luck, because any such extraction is going to require you to use *some* program. :-) But you don't need to install Access itself. Other tools can read Access files. DBTools and MySQLFront are a couple that work pretty well. > >Thanks in advance, > >-- > # Mertens Bram "M8ram" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Linux User #249103 # > # Red Hat Linux 7.3 KDE 3.0.0-10 kernel 2.4.18-3 i686 128MB RAM # --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
