Been there... Done that....

Whilst I understand your stated desire to run this access DB on a wintel
box, I would have though that the hassle of setting up the extra box
_just_for_this_ was less than taking the 100 records (how many tables?)
and dropping them into a MySQL db.... Assuming of course that you have a
MySQL db running on your Raq...

If you need to outsource this conversion, and it is really only a few
tables etc, mail me off list and I'll try and help out
