The nearest possibility is Kexi which will import the Access flles into its own format files and then sort them - but you cannot export them as Access files - but I haven't checked the latest release.<br /> <br /> A long term option is to install mysql on Windows because you can use Access as a frontend for mysql (as well as SQL sever). The main problem is that Access only respects blanket security - so you cannot use any of the fine-grained security that a Linux user takes for granted. http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=107749#107749 johnhudson Thu Sep 06, 2012 10:15 pm http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=107749#107749 http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=107736#107736 <br /> Author: <a href='http://linuxformat.com/forums/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=67719'>Nevil_Devon</a><br /><br /> Posted: Thu Sep 06, 2012 5:00 pm<br /><br /> <br /><br /> I have a dual-boot setup, with Ubuntu12.04 and Windows7.<br /> I have a MSAccess2000 dbase on the Windows7 partition.<br /> I want to view and sort the tables in Ubuntu, not edit them. What is the easiest way to do this? I can view the tables using MDB File Viewer, but cannot sort them. http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=107736#107736 Nevil_Devon Thu Sep 06, 2012 5:00 pm http://linuxformat.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=107736#107736
