We've done some nasty, huge conversions with it and it's really solid. The bulk conversion is a must-have for site builders. It's also a great tool for anyone weird enough to actually ENJOY prototyping databases in Access (like yours truly). The program can do a live conversion directly into a MySQL server or dump to a .sql file ready to pipe to the mysql client/command-line utility. The quality of the SQL is way above average. There's also a cheaper ($40) non-Pro version that I've never used. http://www.convert-in.com/acc2sqlp.htm I’m not one to plug commercial software, but Origami forked the $55 for a commercial license to Access-to-MySQL, a Windows-based conversion tool.
