AccessToSiard - Readme
======================

This package includes a command-line tool for converting
MS Access files (.mdb or .accdb) to SIARD format.

It makes the MSys-Objects visible, grants SELECT rights
to user Admin, creates an ODBC connection (usually "$SIARD$"),
runs siardfromdb.cmd and removes the ODBC connection.
See doc/Documentation.pdf for usage details.
