Is there a way to translate or convert Microsoft Access files to create models in OpenDSS-G? I was using the SYNERGI software (if you are familiar with it) to conduct distribution network analysis. Now, I am trying to use the same SYNERGI models in OpenDSS-G. Is it possible? Hoping you could help me. Thanks.

Hello,
I'm afraid that's not the way to go, normally you go straight to OpenDSS and then import the model into DSS-G. There are several open source tools for translating models into the OpenDSS scripting language, for example:

Once you get the OpenDSS model, you can easily import it as demonstrated here (min 7:17):
