VServer user's option
If you are using Virtual Server hosting you probably have no
sufficient privileges to create new databases on the target MySQL
server. For this case we recommend the following approach:
- ask your Virtual Server administrator to create blank database for
you
- run Access-to-MySQL Pro and select this database as the conversion
target
- click "Yes" when you will be asked if you'd like to overwrite
existing MySQL database
When you complete these steps, the entire contents of the source MS
Access database will be imported into the specified MySQL database.
MySQL dump file
Access-to-MySQL Pro allows users to perform deferred conversion and
get more control over the process. Following this way, the program
stores the contents of the source database into a local dump file
instead of moving it to MySQL server directly. The resulting file
contains MySQL statements to create all tables and to fill them with the
data. You will be able to import this file into existing MySQL database
via MySQL client as follows:
