This works reasonably well to extract data from the MS Access files.

If you only need to query data from MS Access files, you can also have a look at the very limited ODBC driver that comes with the MDBTools. On Unix platforms, you can use one of the ODBC drivers available from commercial ODBC vendors. On Windows, you can use mxODBC with the ODBC driver that comes with MS Access, or use the ODBC driver that comes with the MDAC 2.8 SP1 database access package, if you don't have MS Access installed on the machine.
