I have a disk which contains lots of data on an old Microsoft Office database (wdb) but only have Microsoft Access 2002 to read it with. How do I convert a Microsoft Office database to Microsoft Access 2002.

A2K won’t be of any use. It doesn’t read Works files. As far as I know there is only one way to do what you want to do. You will have to use MS Works and export the data in CSV format, and then import that into Access.
