Hi
Can anyone help me to convert my Lotus Approach databases to my new MS
Access application?
Thanks in advance
Jim
 
Hi Jim,

Conversion as such isn't possible. If the Approach data is a format
Access can read (such as most .dbf files) you can create an Access
database and import the data from the original files. Otherwise, export
it from Approach into a common format (such as .csv or .dbf) and then
import into Access.

Either way, you will need to re-create all the functionality of the
database (forms, reports, etc.) using Access's own tools.
