    Importing .WDB into Access

    Hey everybody,



    So I have inherited 6 .WDB files that I need to get into my database and create some forms with. Problem is, I don't have MS Works to save as another file type. Any help getting these .WDB databases into Access would be amazing! Thank you!

    Try third-party app, like http://www.softpedia.com/get/Office-...onverter.shtml

    Otherwise, I think you are SOL without MS Works available.

    I'll have to try from home, the office network won't allow me to run the app. Thanks for the idea, fingers crossed.
