[fpc-pascal] Reading MDB (MS-Access) data under Linux

Hi,

I need to write a data conversion app. Has anybody read MDB data under
Linux yet, using SqlDB? I saw there was a ODBC database component, and
searched by Ubuntu repository. I installed 'iodbc', 'libiodbc2' and
'libiodbc2-dev'.   The 'iodbc' package came with a GTK ODBC Admin app, but
I have no clue how ODBC works.

* Anybody that can confirm that I can read MDB files via SqlDB's ODBC
component.

* Any pointers and URL's on how to setup ODBC under Linux (Ubuntu)?


Any help or pointers would me much appreciated.


Regards,
