Support for non-Access .mdb files (i.e. JET databases)

Question

I don't care about Access forms, queries, and reports. Can EQL Data simply publish the data from my .mdb files directly to the web?

Answer

The command-line tool eql.exe can be used to sync a .mdb file with the server. If you run the command: 

eql.exe sync --file="C:\path\to\your_database.mdb" --server=http://eqldata.com

then the data in your file will be published on the web. Your local database will also be updated with any new data that has been copied to the server from other sources.

You can find eql.exe in the same location you installed the plugin, C:\Program Files\EQL Access Plugin by default. You still need to have Access installed on the machine when you run eql.exe.
