[AccessD] Translations added to the DBA site

Hi Marty 

...and your point is???... :-)

Try double translating a passage and see if you can even understand what was

If you're like me, that saves me money.

To Chinese and back to English again: 
If you look like me, that preserves my money.

Close within a couple of feet.

Jim
