For the DB program, the only way currently is to dump the database to a text 
file and use the palm-db-tools (http://palm-db-tools.sourceforge.net/) to 
convert the text file into a PDB file.

As for other database programs, several support either direct conversion from 
Access or conduit access to Access via the desktop utilities supplied with 
each product. Check each product for specifics. Some products include JFile, 
MobileDB, HandDBase, and ThinkDB.
