The only one I found that creates a good schema that only needs minimal
massages, and imports all the data correctly is Access-To-MySQL. It's
not free though, but they have a trial. Once I went through my access
database and removed certain invalid records (some rows had a screwed up
primary key in access that mysql didn't like, and the import would
fail), I got a perfect copy of my access database into MySQL.
