you just can't! Unless you parse the data by hand... You may try to do this if you have informations about that file format, which you could find somewhere in the OOo world if it supports .mdb (I'm not sure but it may do it : OOo is so great and already supports bunch of M$ formats!)

Yep! This is what I was talking about! I 've just remebered that the OOo driver to access .mdb files uses MDBTools... Unfortunately it only supports reading .mdb files right now but it can export them in various formats.
