Yes, at least I tried to install mdbtools, the stand-alone viewer is
working:
"gmdb2 0.6pre1
GNOME MDB Viewer is a grapical interface to MDB Tools. It lets you view
and export data and schema from MDB files produced by MS Access
97/2000/XP/2003."
What is needed next to have it available in LbreOffice-Base?
Many thanks, rs
