mdb-schema - Generate schema creation DDL

       The mdb-schema utility was written by Brian Bruns and others.

       Relationships and other features may not be supported by all databases.  Access datatypes are  mapped  to
       their closest counterparts in the target backend. This may not always yield an exact fit.

MDBTools 1.0.1                                   05 January 2025                                   mdb-schema(1)

mdb-schema is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools.

       It  produces  DDL (data definition language) output for the given database. This can be passed to another
       database to create a replica of the original access table format.

MDB_JET3_CHARSET
              Defines the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default is CP1252. See iconv(1).

       MDBICONV
              Defines the output charset to use for the SQL file. Default is  UTF-8.  mdbtools  must  have  been
              compiled with iconv.

       MDBOPTS
              Colon-separated list of options:

              •  debug_like

              •  debug_write

              •  debug_usage

              •  debug_ole

              •  debug_row

              •  debug_props

              •  debug_all is a shortcut for all debug_* options

              •  no_memo (deprecated; has no effect)

              •  use_index (experimental; requires libmswstr)

mdb-schema first appeared in MDB Tools 0.1.
