Description

MDB Explorer is designed for quick and easy viewing of MDB and MDE files without having an Access license. This application can be used to open tables from multiple Access databases, have your table structures shown and described in terms of column and relation. With MDB Explorer, you can export data into many other formats including SQLite, CSV, TXT, XML, XLS and XLSX. In addition, you can generate SQL files for other popular databases such as MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, SQLite and SQL Server. Other helpful features: - Powerful filtering capabilities - Sorting and searching functions - Image viewing and text viewing - Open and view your files in full screen mode - Unicode data support - Create multiple column filters to narrow down search results Note: MDB Explorer supports Access 97-2003 file formats. It is designed for tables viewing and exporting only; forms, queries, and database modification will not be supported in this program. Access 2007-2013 (.accdb) file format will be available as an in-app purchase.

  • does nothing without buying add-on

    I just want to open an access db&form but it runs out that paying $10 for this program does not give you that ability; you have to pay another $10 to open a file. Instead of doing that I will go compile the mdbtools off of github. Ugh, why would someone do this.
  • Beware in-app purchases

    Description of app doesn’t make buyer aware of in-app purchases to actually use this product. You would have to create an MDB file from Access to use this (If you could that on your mac you wouldn’t need this App to begin with!)
  • WORST APP EVER BOUGHT

    Don’t waste your money. Can open files but the filter function is useless. Crashes every time I use it. I have to find a new app. I want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!
  • Nice interface, but MSSQL export needs work

    I downloaded this to convert an MDB file to SQL, in order to import it into a SQL Server instance. The interface was good and the export was a seamless affair; it was quick and easy. Until I attempted to run the exported SQL script on SQL Server 2012. There were a lot of syntax issues with unique indices (I had to remove the schema definitions by hand), and the SQL generated for foreign keys doesn’t work well. It’s possible that some of the foreign key isues are due to the way that the Access database was set up, but I’m having to edit the SQL by hand to make this work correctly. Of note: if you have an Access database that uses the “varbinary” type, and you export as MSSQL, the syntax will be incorrect; it uses the MySQL variant for the value insert (ex: x’589cf’) instead of the MSSQL hexadecimal syntax (ex: 0x589cf) so you’ll have to do a find and replace. Overall, it’s not bad, compared to a lot of the alternatives, but just be aware that it requires tweaking.

    I used to love this app because I used it to convert from Access to SQLite. In a recent update they made Access DB format an additional $5.00. I purchased this app once, I won’t purchase it again for a feature I “bought” the first time around.

    I tried to open various mdb files on two separate systems with 0S x 10.9.1. The files varied in age and size from 2mb to 1.3 gb. No matter the system or the size of the file, the app just keeps crashing. As it stands the app is completely useless. all files open fine on MS Access 2010 and contain data. I submitted crash reports and waiting to hear back. Until then, i wouldn’t spend money this software. !!!!UPDATE!!!!! Had some contact with the devs, and the latest upgrade to version 2.2 solved all problems. Blazing fast, great software. Much appreciated
