Dear Marijn,
From me, the same question as always: we completely lack MS Access
file format (.mdb, .mde, and the newer .accdb)
specification/documentation.
Alternatively an export tool from binary to, say, an XML format would
somewhat solve this dramatic lack of interoperability.
For now even MS Access users cannot be owners of their own
source code (VBA), form designs, etc.

Kudos!
