That's an old email link, David. Try jkoziol@microsoft.com in the future.

I have to warn you that MDB2DBC is unsupported. I suffered a huge hard disk crash last year and lost all source code. Now, I did email the source to some people and it's still floating around, but I have no means to debug specific issues. Sorry.

At any rate, yes, I did get an error. Thanks for the warning since I was wondering if it was something peculiar with my Access file. I'll assume not and proceed with going from Access to Excel and then from Excel to a Foxpro table. If you have any better suggestions please let me know.
