Re: [Qgis-user] Load ESRI Personal Geodatabase in QGIS 2.8.1
Hi Mats, thank you for your warning... I think also it's a risk. Regards Ulrike Am 18 Nov 2015 um 9:20 hat Mats Elfström geschrieben: Hi! I too have wasted time on this problem and the suggested remedies all but ruined my Office installation. The thing is I have an Office 32bit on a 64bit machine and wanted QGIS 64bit. By some tweak I managed to install both 32bit and 64bit mdb drivers, which then made the Office installation instable and updates failed. Why can't the required libraries for QGIS mdb access be included in the installer, instead of having to rely on Microsoft settings? Anyway, I have ditched the mdb format for now. It did not serve the purpose of a neutral geodatabase format in a mixed environment. Another thing worth noting is that the Personal Geodatabase is an ESRI only, Windows only format and ArcGIS Server dropped support for it some three years ago. It is likely that ArcGIS Desktop will abandon it too. ArcGIS Pro already has. It is also severly limited in terms of performance and storage space. So on the whole, it may be a good move to migrate your data into a less system dependent format such as PostGIS.

Hello Burghardt, Lewis and Randy, thank you so much for your helpful answers. I have to check it now.

I worked my way through this in 2.8.x - I did this on a 64 bit windows install - I had it working. The person I was attempting to help couldn't get it to work following my directions - so - proceed at your own risk: http://www.northrivergeographic.com/qgis-accessing-personal-geodatabase Randy On 11/17/2015 09:24 AM, burghardt.scho...@stadt.wolfsburg.de wrote: Hi Ulrike, yes, it is possible to open a pGDB in QGIS.

Hi there, There is a work-around to load 32-bit gdb files with QGIS 64-bit. You need to install MS Office 64-bit patch for Access.
