+MDB files are the native database format of MS Access (and also some other MS applications).

+Features:
+- only import
+- only tables are currently imported (no queries, forms, reports, etc.)
+- imports all data types, including binary and memo
+- imports primary keys
+- imports data (records)

+mdbtools library is used internally (https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools). To facilitate access to
+the newest possible mdbtools version regardless of operating system KEXI runs on, mdbtools' code has
+been imported to src/migration/mdb/3rdparty/mdbtools directory of KEXI. Only needed source files
+have been copied, that is command line tools and GUI code is not included. This is not meant to be
+a fork though, improvements are contributed back to the main project.
