Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

1.
Access connection

Access

We will choose Access database from the list of available source database formats and fill in connection properties. You can simply click ellipsis (...) button to select MDB or ACCDB database file. It depends on the version of your database. Access 2007 databases are contained in ACCDB files, while earlier versions are contained in MDB files.

If your Access database is protected, fill-in your password as well.

In case you use Access workgroups and security, you will need to also find your system database and specify credentials for it.

2.

Vertica

We will select Vertica from the drop down and fill out the connection parameters.
