I have Microsoft Office. I keep getting these documents in what's
called an MDB file, and I can't open them. Where can I find the
software that would let me open these files?

Lockforward,

Microsoft Access files normally have the file extension .mdb. To view
these files you will need Microsoft Access, which is a part of
Microsoft Office Professional Edition.

If you do not have Microsoft Access, then you can view these files
using Microsoft's free Access Viewer.

The Snapshot Viewer enables you to view a report snapshot without
having the standard or run-time versions of Microsoft Access 97
through Access 2003.
Download Snapshot Viewer for Access 2003, 2002, 2000, and 97 here:

Please let me know if this works for you.

Thanks,
Bobbie7

Microsoft Access is used to open MDB files.

If you don't have Microsoft Access, which is a part of Microsoft
Office Professional Edition you can use Microsoft's free Access
Viewer.

Please download this program, istall it and let me know if it works.

If it does I will close the question and receive my fee. If not I will
resume my search.


Thanks, Bobbie7
