    Export to other and than back to Access?


    I do not have access on my computer, but need to manipulate an access database that is associated with another piece of software. Is it possible to open the database in another program and change it without changing the integrity of the file? Is there another program out there that can work with access file types?

    You can create database queries from Excel that will pull data from Access databases. In Excel XP, it's under Data|Import External Data|Database Queries in the menu.

    That should work, as long as your computer has the right ODBC drivers.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
