SUMMARY

Microsoft Access does not ship with an ISAM driver that supports linking (attaching) R:BASE tables to Microsoft Access databases. However, R:BASE can export tables into several different formats that Microsoft Access can import.

To retain column names and data type definitions, export R:BASE tables from R:BASE by using the dBASE format.

MORE INFORMATION

R:BASE can export the following formats:
ASCII delimited
ASCII fixed width
DIF (VisiCalc or other program)
SYLK (Multiplan or other program)
dBASE II, dBASE III, or dBASE III Plus (DBF)
Lotus 1-2-3 (version 1.0 and 2.0) or Symphony (WKS, WK1, or WRK)
R:BASE and dBASE are manufactured by vendors independent of Microsoft; we make no warranty, implied or otherwise, regarding these products' performance or reliability.

APPLIES TO
Microsoft Access 1.0 Standard Edition
Microsoft Access 1.1 Standard Edition
Microsoft Access 2.0 Standard Edition
