MDB is a database file generated and used by Microsoft Access program – it is a native format of this software, based on engine of the Access Jet database. MDB files contain data regarding databases – structure and requests of a database, functions, records and other information.
InterBase is a database software used to store data. .GDB is nothing but the database files generated by this software system. For those using the older version of InterBase software, GDB is the file format they need to follow. The new file format .
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the MDB file after converting to GDB may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from MDB to GDB to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting MDB to GDB does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in MDB format, properly converted to a GDB file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file MDB the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of MDB file to other than GDB. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your MDB file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to GDB on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the MDB file in its original format (without conversion to GDB file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
