[Sussex] Access migration to MySQL help, please?

[Mark Harrison]

Hi all,

A client of mine has agreed to trial a MySQL / Web front end replacement for
one of their current systems - client contacts.

They're a small business, and their current marketing database is in Access,
on the laptop of their marketing guy.

They're marketing department now consists of three people, all of whom spend
most of their time in the road or at home, so this is not ideal :-)

The two options I ran through with them were Notes or Web-based... You'll be
glad to know they chose web-based, and it's going to run on a MySQL backend.

What I actually need help with is getting the info from them. Their
marketing guy is "NON-TECHNICAL", and concerned about just sending me the
database. I've reassured him that, for the proof of concept, I just need the
STRUCTURE not the CONTENT.

I don't actually have any Access experience. Does anyone know if there's an
easy way to say "make a new exmpty database, based on the structure of this
one"??? If so, he could do that, and mail me the EMPTY one :-)

Regards,

Mark
