You can - with difficulty - import the data in the database, I believe.

The application will need to be totally redone. Approach and Access have
utterly different design philosophies, and the user interface programming is
not compatible.

Just as I figured, I was hoping someone had a good magic trick!

Thanks for taking the time to respond.
