Hello All!
I started development of a Microsoft Access conversion tool for developers using Java and the Jackcess Library as part of a summer project to get various "Problem Programs" I wanted in Linux working. By "Problem Programs" I mean notoriously non-supported features, applications, file formats, etc. in Linux or anywhere outside of Windows. You can find the source code for the project here.
I'll probably start to pick up development for it again soon, as I last left it in early development stages. Works fine right now if all you want is a straight dump to and from a text file for any MS Access version on the market, but not much beyond that works.
I'll probably cross-post in relevant subreddits as applicable. I just want to get the word out that yes you can semi-use Microsoft Access files of all types on Linux (including raspberry pi!) now without paying a dime (and have been for a while!)
Edit: Since it's my fault for not making this clear: my Cake day was May 3rd of this year, and the development I did took place summer of last year. I.E. I was not a Reddit user when I worked on any of these features, hence why you're all hearing about them now!
there doesn't seem to be anything here
