Not that I know of.

You would have to export the individual tables into separate flat files and then you could use Perl to read data from them.

Better applications to read data out of M$Access databases are:

1) Active Server Pages
2) Cold Fusion

Yes, I believe there is a DBD module for access. If not, there is definately one for DBD::ODBC which I have used before.

Installation support is provided via ICQ at UIN# 53788453. I will only respond on that number.
