MDB Excavation

MDB is a Microsoft Access Database file. We'd like to look inside of it, but we have a Mac and no MS Office license.

export.py is a program that can do each of the following:

  1. Put each table into its own .csv file to look at.
  2. Put each table in the data into an excel / google sheets doc for easy viewing/browsing
  3. Create a sqlite db which is similarly portable but accessible via a variety of common tools
