Access/Database help

Export it as a DBF or even CSV and import that into MySQL. Simple. If you're not sure how to do that, get MySQL front and import it using that. I'm almost sure you can save as dbf or csv in access. Then you could do whatever you want with the MySQL DB.

Or you could just make the forms in Access. Like creepy said, it's not tough. And yeah, they're like normal run of the mill front-end forms for your db. If you need it to be an executable file for distribution, use VB or do the mysql thing and make a web based app. You can use the mysql db in VB as well I believe, or Download Delphi and do it in Pascal. Or learn RUBY and do the REAL way.

Either way man, let me know if you need help. This is something I actually know a thing or two about
