exportSQL

More code on conversion Access database to other database types:

exportSQL is a Microsoft Access module which exports Access Database into MySQL, mSQL and PostgreSQL. It's based on work of Pedro Freire. [fm] [CVS]
There is also a GUI version, kindly donated by Marc Breneiser <mbreneiser(at)whgrp(dot)com> which is especially useful if your Access database is already converted to .mde files. Zip Conversion.zip includes .exe and source in VB.

Quoted from *SQL-ish projects page of Dobrica Pavlinusic.

Northwind.NET

Northwind sample database, shipped with any Access version, shows different programming techniques, so Access developer can take look at sample code and quickly learn it. Northwind.NET does the same for .NET framework – it is a set of sample applications demonstrating various modern technologies and development practices used within .NET Framework and Visual Studio 2008. If you once need to make something in .NET – just look at this project, find a type of form or report you want to build and check how you can build it using different .NET development techniques.

Plus - there is a sample of calling .NET web service from Access (or wrapping any .NET class into COM)!
