Converting Access 2000 .mdb file to XML

[stephen.currie]

How would I go about converting a .mdb file in Access 2000 to XML.
Are there any easy ways to do this?

access 2003 to access 2007 have a xml export built in.

With access 2000, you have to write code to produce the "mark-up" language.

you could also consider using some of the XML libraries available.

If you not into writing code, then the above will not be a whole lot of
help.

access 2000 was out a long time ago...much before anyone was talking about,
or useing xml.
However, you can roll your own export,...

Eh? XML was already a buzzword at that point and well on the way to
becoming the NEXT BIG THING.

ah...ok..access 2000 came out in 1999...and the y2k bug was the buzz..but,
ok...I suppose XML was gaining in popularity also!!!

I was already saying that XML was over-rated back then.

move it from Access MDB to SQL Server and then use the XML tools within SQL
Server

correction

this feature was sold to us both in Access 2002 _AND_ Access 2003

of course it was present in Access 2002

XML is just ridiculous

who gives a crap about XML?

I'll choose SQL Server over XML any day of the week

 

[Aaron Kempf]

seriously

please explain WHY you're moving to XML
