NAME mdb-tables - Get listing of tables in an MDB database SYNOPSIS mdb-tables [-S] [-1 | -d] DESCRIPTION mdb-tables is a utility program distributed with MDB Tools. It produces a list of tables contained within an MDB database in a format suitable for use in shell scripts. OPTIONS -S Show system tables. System tables are generally those beginning with 'MSys' -1 specifies that the tables should be listed 1 per line. -d delimiter specifies an alternative delimiter. If no delimiter is specified, table names will be delimited by a tab character, or by newline if the -1 option was specified. NOTES ENVIRONMENT MDB_JET3_CHARSET Defines the charset of the input JET3 (access 97) file. Default is CP1252. See iconv(1). MDBICONV Defines the output charset. Default is UTF-8. mdbtools must have been compiled with iconv. MDBOPTS semi-column separated list of options: * use_index * no_memo * debug_like * debug_write * debug_usage * debug_ole * debug_row * debug_props * debug_all is a shortcut for all debug_* options HISTORY mdb-tables first appeared in MDB Tools 0\.3 AUTHORS The mdb-tables utility was written by Brian Bruns BUGS Access allows for tables to have spaces embeded in the table name. You must specify a delimiter (-d) if you intend on piping the output of mdb-tables to a program such as awk or cut.
