Converting Access DB to MySQL

    As the subject says, I'm looking for an easy way to convert a couple of MS access databases to mysql. I tried exporting tables to comma delimited text files from access but theres just nothing happening when I try to import the data through phpmyadmin.

    I downloaded a couple of apps that did the trick but they were limited shareware and I don't see the point in paying for software that I'm going to use once.

    How can I get this done as painlessly as possible?

    Install MyODBC and then export it from Access. Usually works a treat.

    I actually did it today.. Had another session on google and found a program called Navicat that did it with little trouble.. cheers for the reply Dun
