How do I convert *.wdb and *.mdb files and bring into excel? I have files
from other people that made lists in access. In Excel there is no listing for
these files. Any help?

Open the access file and highlight the table you want to export t
excel. go to

In the Save type as: box click on the drop down and pick microsof
excel

In the save in: box click on the drop down and pick what excel file th
table will be imported to and highlight.

Thank you for the reply, Keith. I see how that would work but the problem
is that I received these files from someone in OUtlook express as an
attachment and I can't bring them into access. I just can't open them.

Have you tried saving the file to your desktop first? Then try an
export the file where you want it
