    convert it to mySQL, or convert them to text files/xml and have PHP/Perl parse them.

    Depends on your webpage, and the choice of programming languages.
    But when you say MDB you might be using an ASP(.Net) enviroment, you might want to look into Ado(.net) or ODBC(.Net) or whatever the name du jour is that microsoft uses for these systems.

    I agree! If you are on a Microsoft stack and plan to use ASP(.NET) then ADO(.NET) or ODBC will work. However, if your target stack is Linux and PHP then we can discuss a migration strategy. Also, just for clarification we would not convert to text/XML as one member suggested. Can we all say Rube Goldberg?
