I have yum installed the tools from Dag and also downloaded and (eventually!) compiled the latest > release from the mdbtools web site, but I either get 'buffer overflow' errors or no output from most of the tools.

A straight configure/make created tools that ran, but generated no output. I re-did the configure with some suggested options (below) and it works!!! ./configure --enable-sql --with-unixodbc=/usr/local It seems these options are needed even though I am accessing the mdb file directly off disk and not via odbc or SQL Thanks to all who were just about to chip in with suggestions ;-) -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
