Database Migration and Extraction Links, courtesy of Sanjay:

MS Access to MySQL (article) : Migrating from MS Access to MySQL

Another link for those migrating databases: Paul DuBois :: Migrating from Microsoft Access to MySQL. Paul DuBois is the author of one of the best books on MySQL and also has a number of other MySQL articles up on his website. (via Simon Willison)

Oracle to Any (tool): NXTract

NXTract is a conversion and data rescue utility. It reads Oracle EXP dump files and converts the internal data to a standard tab delimited format. This allows you to read Oracle tables with any program, database, or utility that accepts tab delimited data such as Sybase, SQL Server, DB2, Excel, Access, Ingres, MySQL, Informix, Lotus 123, dBASE, Visual Basic, Foxpro Powerbuilder, and other versions of Oracle, etc. (via theScoop)

MS Access to MySQL, Oracle, Sybase, PostgresSQL, and more (tools): MDB Tools Project

Want to kick, or help someone kick, the Microsoft Access habit? The MDB Tools project may be just what you need. The MDB Tools folks have created programs that export schema from an Access 97 or Access 2000/2002 database to other databases that run on non-Microsoft platforms, like Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and so on.
