I have MDB file with data and Mysql database also, I want to insert some specific fields of MDB file to My mysql database, Is there any mechanism to covert it and mention some specific fileds?
If you have Microsoft Access, you can create a link to the MySQL database using the appropriate ODBC driver for MySQL. But it's probably easier to install MySQL Workbench and use the migration assistant (in this case, you'll have to use the ODBC driver for Access).

On Windows 7, I must connect a MS Access client .accdb, where all the forms, VBA scripts, macro, and reports are, to a MySQL Database instead of a MS Access database .mdb. Here what I have tried so far.
I created a connection with MySQL Connector /ODBC 5.3 Unicode driver to the MySQL database with success.
After in MS Access 2013, I created a new database .mdb by linking to my local machine ODBC Connector. I can see the data in each table I have linked.
However, I didn’t find where to change the connection’s setup of the MS Access client .accdb so it uses the data from the new .mdb file linked to the MySQL database. Where do we do that?
Actually, I had also tried to directly connect the .accdb to MySQL by linking to my local machine ODBC Connector. In that case, the .accdb's forms kept trying to connect to the previous .mdb database. Where can I change this configuration?
Is there another, maybe easier way to use MS Access's user interface to interact with data from a MySQL database?
Is there any software that I can use to do this, or do I need to create a dump file from SQL Server that is compatible with MySQL?
If you can get the MySQL ODBC driver installed you can do the transfer with SQL Server management Studio (or whatever they're calling it now).
It doesn't do a great job with metadata so you'll probably have to deal with the constraints manually, as well as tweak the column definitions, but it will transfer the data.
I need to select some data from WX2 Database and put it in MYSQL DB.
Can any one help me on this?
Is ODBC.ini configuration will work for the mysql database to connect to WX2 database?
Thanks
To access the data in Kognitio you could use the ODBC driver to retrieve it, or for better performance use the bulk unloader utilities to export it as CSV, which you could then load into MySQL.
If you were going the other way round, pulling data FROM MySQL TO Kognitio, you could bulk unload as CSV from MySQL then bulk load into Kognitio, or you could use the External Table functionality of version 8 to access MySQL tables on demand from Kognitio via an ODBC connector.
The documentation covers off all these approaches.
I have a .mdb file on my computer that I would like to convert into a MySQL Schema and I have found that there is a migration tool within Workbench. However it doesn't seem to allow you to connect to a .mdb instead it looks for a server. How should I either link to my file or host my file easily as I have not done this before.
MySQL Workbench doesn't currently support migrations from MS Access. But you can still use the old MySQL Migration Toolkit which does support MS Access migrations.
I'm working in NetBeans 6.8 and I'm trying to create new connection using MySQL to an existing database. Does the .mdb file need to be in a specific location? It tells me that it cannot establish the connection.
.mdb is an extension of a Microsoft Access database file, not MySQL. You need a different driver and you're not likely to get a platform-independent open source implementation.
