You got it, Jim!

I've been having fun converting several Access apps to use MySQL as the BE
instead. It's wonderful how effortless it is. There's a cool utility called
"MS Access to MySQL" that will convert an Access database to a MySQL
database in a few clicks, and it's got some options that let you do things
like convert yes/no values to 0 and 1 instead of 0 and -1.

Then I create a new Access FE and set up a new ODBC connection to the new
MySQL database. Then I import all the forms, queries, modules and reports.
Presto, it's done in a very few minutes (mileage depending on table sizes
of course).

(I'm doing this in prep for a gig involving Access+MySQL.)
