Convert Borland Database to Microsoft Access

I have an old Borland Database engine database and I need to convert the entire application into Microsoft Access. I was able to go into Access and import the tables, but I need the entire application in access. Is there any easy way to do this, or am I going to have to manually program this?

Thanks,
Jaime

AFAIK, you'll need to rewrite the app. You should be able to import the tables, but, that's as much as the import tool will provide.

IMO, you'll be happier if you create a aeparate EXE front end (with Delphi, VB, etc.) and a distinct Back End, rather than try to code it all with VBA within Access.
